Sevilla – Deportivo

FC Sevilla hosts Deportivo La Coruna in an early afternoon game Sunday in La Liga.

Sevilla was destroyed by Atletico Madrid 4-0 last week … a surprise because Sevilla played top football this season except for that game but a closer analysis of the game says the score was really harsh … for most of the game Sevilla was at the same level as Atletico. Hosts are still on 4th place in La Liga with 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss and now vs. Deportivo is a time to bounce back … specially since Sevilla also did not win Thursday in Europa League (2-2 in Croatia with Rijeka, but resting some players). Barbosa, Gameiro, Cristoforo and possibly Arribas are Sevilla’s absentees today.

Deportivo fell to the last place after 3 consecutive losses, last time a disappointing 0-1 at home vs. Almeria. Deportivo has a defense which leaks a lot of goals but offensive Depor does not stand much better either. Visitors for sure made an analysis of their situation and will come at Sevilla to get some points which they need … but the way they are playing their football, it will be a very, very hard task and things don’t look likely to change. After all there is also a lack of quality in the team and Deportivo also has a number of absences: Salomao and Insua + possibly Cuenca, Dominguez and Farina.

Sevilla won last three games at home in all competitions (two with a 1 goal handicap, all with a clean sheet), they played top football all season and there is no reason to believe they will not dominate and win this game … specially after 2 winless matches. Deportivo’s defense is sure to allow a lot of chances to the attacking minded Sevilla and a handicap win is likely. My tip will be Sevilla to win with 1,25 goal asian handicap. Correct score prediction: FC Sevilla – Deportivo La Coruna 3-0.
