Spanish La Liga 2012 Preview: Deportivo La Coruna vs Getafe Predictions

Deportivo La Coruna is coming off of a positive win after they cruised to an easy victory over Sevilla. Catch real time updates on your favorite Spanish La Liga Match.

Deportivo La Coruna Preview

La Coruna won on return to La Liga Riki and Nelson Oliveira helped Deportivo la Coruna celebrate their return to La Liga in style with a 2-0 home win over Osasuna in their opening game of the new season. Deportivo coach Jose Luis Oltra believes attack will be his side's best form of defense and insists he and his players will not be overawed when playing away from home this season.

He told Marca: "We are not going to give up the three points at any ground, or against any rival."

"We have to compete well, adapt ourselves to the game and go there convinced that we can win.

"To take a point in the Mestalla you have to score at least a goal and to win, at least two.

"If this is my thinking I can't say to my players that we are going to defend, although it is another thing to say we have to start with the defensive work collectively."

Getafe Preview

Getafe are also looking to improve after a 2-1 loss to Sevilla in their La Liga opener, and Garcia knows they will have to do much better if they are to shut out their local rivals on Sunday.

"What I care about is my team, demonstrating that desire, that hope, that faith and that enjoyment of playing against the big teams," he told a press conference.

"We will try not to change things too much. We will try to be a strong team and aggressive.

"No one expects us to win, but we will try to beat Real Madrid. It won't make much difference to the standings but we want to win it for the team and for our fans.

"We will face one of the two best teams in the world and these things require a lot of concentration. To win we have to put on a performance and we can do that.

"I don't think the Supercopa will affect them but they will be on the alert after the draw with Valencia, because to win the league you have to be close to 100 points and if you lose one, you don't get it back."

Deportivo La Coruna vs Getafe Predictions: 1-1 Draw

Both teams needs this win unfortunately these teams are so evenly matched from the offense and defensive stand point. This game will be a draw.
