Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Deportivo La Coruna play host to Castellon at Riazor in what is expected to be one of the most exciting games of Thursday’s program. The Galicians are eager to revive their playoffs hopes and we are positive that they will stick to their attacking style of play against Castellon. The good news for the hosts is that talented forward David Mella is back from suspension, while defender Dani Barcia remains in the recovery room.
Los Albinegros, on the other hand, aim to build on a thrilling 4-1 win over Cartagena, but seeing that Deportivo are tough to beat in Galicia, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. All Camara, de Miguel, Gil, and Lottin remain on the sidelines with injuries, while both Willems and Calatrava are major doubts. Midfielder Raul Sanchez is rated doubtful as well after limping off with injury in the last league match.
