La Liga preview and odds: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid
May 14, 2016 16:00pm - Estadio Municipal de Riazor
La Liga
Real Madrid can still snatch the Spanish league title but they will need to beat 13th-ranked Deportivo La Coruna in Galica and hope that Barcelona slip up in Granada.
Title fate not in Real MadridÂ’s hands
Real Madrid have done all they can to keep themselves in the hunt for the title by winning their last 11 league games in a row. They must increase that tally to 12 on Saturday and hope that other results go their way if they are to be crowned La Liga champions for the first time in four years.
Zidane`s men kept their dream alive with a 3-2 win at home to Valencia last time out. On the road, they have won their last six on the trot and are unbeaten in 10. However, they have only kept one clean sheet in their last seven away games.
One win in last 10 at home for Depor
Deportivo La Coruna have only won one of their last 10 league matches on home soil in La Liga and have lost their last three in a row including an 8-0 demolition at the hands of Barcelona.
In total, Depor have won just two of their last 21 matches in the league, having drawn 10 and lost the other nine. One of those victories came away to Villarreal in the last league round of matches. Despite their low number of wins across the season, a league-leading tally of 18 draws has ensured that the Galician side have remained clear of the relegation zone throughout the campaign.
Team news
Laure, Cani, Juan Rodriguez, Luisinho, German Lux and Fabricio are all out of action for the home side.
Meanwhile, the visitors willhav eot make do without Lucas Vazquez.
