Deportivo La Coruna welcome the visitors Numancia in the Spanish La Liga 2 – Round 17. The match will be held on Saturday, December 8th at the Estadio Municipal de Riazor (La Coruna).
No matter how good Deportivo are (they hold the second line in the league!), they managed to win only half of their matches, alternating the home wins with draws, however, almost with no allowed goals. The team had three wins by over one goal margin, but those were the clashes with the bottom-table opponents. In the latest five rounds, Deportivo won only twice. They are reasonably considered favorite in the Saturday match, but we are not quite sure if they manage to win by a margin of over one goal. We should primarily consider the present form of the visiting side though.

Numancia have conceded in two of their last five matches, but those were defeats by the margin of one goal only. The team play rather decently against the top-six competing for the class progression. Numancia registered a draw in the match versus Granada, and only in three of their losses they conceded by a margin of over one goal. Their away performance is not that promising. The guests still did not manage to win in outings and racked up only four points in eight rounds.
Despite of the hosts’ favorite status, we would be cautious regarding their strength. Deportivo have been dropping too many points in matches with the teams which can be considered middle-class and underdogs. Numancia do not allow that much, they are in good form lately, and they are expected to respond robustly to the opponent in the coming meeting.
Prediction for the match: Numancia to win with +1.5 handicap.
