Draw 1-1

Reason for tip

Elche have scored exactly once in each of their last four away league matches. They played out a 1-1 draw at Granada recently and this could go in a similar direction.

Deportivo La Coruna vs Elche Predictions

  • Fewer than three goals have been scored in four of Deportivo La Coruna’s last seven home league games
  • Fewer than three goals have been scored in seven of Elche’s last nine away games in the Segunda
  • Three of the last four meetings of these clubs have seen fewer than three goals scored

Goals could be scarce in Galicia 

Goals are likely to be at a premium when Elche travel to Deportivo La Coruna’s Estadio Riazor on Sunday with the goal of sealing automatic promotion.

A point is likely to be enough for the visitors, but the match will be anything but easy. Their Galician hosts boast a strong squad, with star quality in abundance that belies their lowly league placing of 15th.

Right-winger David Mella made the step up to second tier football look easy in the first half of the campaign, but his performances have dipped as fatigue and injuries have taken their toll. Left-winger Yeremay Hernandez has been consistently excellent and is reportedly being assessed by both Arsenal and Chelsea for a move to the Premier League.

Elche’s style is to draw out opponents

Eder Sarabia will stick to his trademark style of play for this one, which involves building play from the back and constructing long phases of possession to draw out the opponent and create space in behind.

This strategy has aided Elche’s division-best defensive record with los Franjiverdes conceding only 34 league goals. Deportivo have scored seven goals across their last two games at the Riazor, but this match could be more like the 0-0 home draw with Tenerife that preceded them.

A draw might suit both teams on the day and the 1-1 correct score option makes most appeal to go with the main recommendation of under 2.5 goals.
