Early-season scrap at the Cerámica
Villarreal CF have a very slight home advantage over Deportivo A Coruna in Saturday's LaLiga 2026/2027 clash at the Estadio de la Ceramica as Íñigo Pérez's side sit 14th with two points from three games compared to Deportivo's 2 points from two fixtures in 13th.
The Submarino Amarillo have drawn their last two LaLiga 2026/2027 matches, a 2-2 draw away at Racing Santander and a 2-2 away at Atletico Madrid prior to losing 1-0 away at Deportivo Alaves last weekend.
Pérez has got his new-look team to press the ball higher and play at a faster tempo than previously, while Deportivo are set up to be a much more compact and pragmatic side under Antonio Hidalgo.
Amatucci and Aubameyang are Deportivo’s danger men
The blanquiazules have also drawn their last two games, 1-1 at home to Elche and 1-1 away at Malaga CF, and have clearly been set up to stay organised and win the ball back in numbers in order to punish mistakes in transition.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is Deportivo's most accomplished finisher and has two goals in two LaLiga 2026/2027 appearances, but Lorenzo Amatucci adds a bit of creativity and has one assist in two outings.
Georges Mikautadze has been Villarreal's most likely source of goals with one in three LaLiga 2026/2027 appearances and two of Villarreal's four goals in their last five games.
Deportivo can draw, but hosts have the edge
These teams could be a good fit and this looks like it will be a contest of press versus structure, but Villarreal's home advantage should just be enough to see them through.
Villarreal have won their home LaLiga 2026/2027 fixture so far while Deportivo have won one of their away trips, but they have one win and two draws in their three away games overall this season.
