They are 8 points above Sporting Gijon who are 18th in the league table.

They have lost 2 and drawn 1 of their last 3 matches and will hope to start winning against Espanyol.

Deportivo’s home form is indifferent – they have won 2 lost 2 and drawn 1 of their last 5 home games and their last home game was a 6-2 humbling by Real Madrid.

Espanyol are currently 9th on the league table with 50 points from 35 games.

They have not had a good run recently, as they have failed to win any of their last 3 league games, losing 2 and drawing the other.

Away from home Espanyol have won only 1 of their last 7 away games.

Bookmakers make Deportivo slight favourites to come out on top in this tie.
