| Deportivo de A Coruna and Levante prepare to open this round in LaLiga at the Abanca-Riazor. The main objective in front of these two this year is to mantain their position in the Spanish top flight. La Coruna enters this fixture looking to bounce back from a tight 2-3 defeat away at Real Sociedad. Prior to that, their form showed resilience with notable wins against Villarreal and Valencia, though consistency remains a challenge. Playing at home in front of the Riazor faithful fans, Depor carries a positive historical comfort level. Levante arrives eager to impose their tactical discipline. Having traded blows with Deportivo in past Segunda Division encounters, including a narrow 2-1 win at the Riazor back in January 2025, the visitors know what it takes to get a result in Galicia. Their recent mood centers on defensive solidity and exploiting counter-attacking transitions. Midfield anchor Diego Villares and Mario Soriano need to dictate the tempo early to prevent Levante from slowing down the game and frustrating the hosts. |
