Deportivo vs Sevilla team news and expert analysis
The La Coruna club only returned from the country's third tier in 2024. By 2025/2026, they had already emerged as one of the leading sides in the Segunda, earning promotion to La Liga. Their experienced newcomer, Aubameyang, immediately made an impact, with his goals earning draws against Elche and Malaga and helping them beat Valencia and even Villarreal. Against Getafe, the 37-year-old veteran once again scored the goal that secured a 1-1 draw.
The side from Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan finally climbed into the middle of the table last season, finishing 13th. On the other hand, they collected just one more point than Mallorca, who were relegated to the Segunda, with 43 points. After the summer break, they made a strong start with two victories, but then lost at home to Atletico Madrid. However, they subsequently shared the points with Espanyol in a 1-1 draw, before beating Valencia.
The La Liga newcomers are currently scoring 1.8 goals per game while conceding 1.2. Luis Garcia's men are scoring 1.6 goals per match and conceding 1.2.
