Levante
Riazor plays host to a fascinating Friday night clash on 16 October as Deportivo A Coruña welcome Levante in La Liga. The newly promoted Galicians have defied the odds to sit seventh, ten points already banked from their opening fixtures. Levante, by contrast, languish in seventeenth on just five points, and the spectre of relegation trouble looms large. With the head-to-head record split evenly across fourteen prior meetings, this promises to be a tightly contested affair with genuine consequences at both ends of the table.
1: Deportivo A Coruña to win
Match Analysis
Deportivo A Coruña enter this fixture as the clear favorite at 2.05, sitting 7th with 10 points as a promoted side. Their defensive solidity, conceding just 1.1 goals per game, underpins a genuine quality edge over their visitors.
- 7th place, 10 points earned as a promoted side signals an exceptional early-season adaptation.
- 1.1 goals conceded per game, the superior defensive record compared to Levante’s leaky backline.
- Two consecutive home wins in their last five games give Deportivo real momentum at Riazor.
- Levante missing three key players including Sotelo and Eyong, thinning an already fragile away squad.
Levante arrive at Riazor priced at 3.50, marooned in 17th place with just 5 points from eight games. Their LLDWD run and a defensive record of 2.0 goals conceded per game make a repeat of their recent H2H wins extremely difficult on the road.
- 2.0 goals conceded per game, the worst defensive record of the two sides by a clear margin.
- Three confirmed absentees, Sotelo, Eyong and Primo, severely limit Levante’s attacking and creative options.
- Away form shows no back-to-back wins this season, with the LLDWD sequence revealing chronic inconsistency.
Key point: With both squads depleted and Deportivo’s home record defensively solid, the double chance covering a home win or draw offers a lower-risk angle at 2.05.

Our Verdict
Deportivo’s home form seals the verdict here. Two wins from their last two at Riazor, combined with a defensive record of just 1.1 goals conceded per match, gives the hosts a clear edge over a Levante side winless in five. The twelve-point positional gap reinforces the value in backing a home win at 2.05. Under 2.5 goals at 1.85 also appeals given Deportivo’s defensive solidity and Levante’s struggles in front of goal. Our pick: Deportivo A Coruña to win.
