Tshepo’s picks

-

Relegation-threatened Deportivo La Coruna head into their game with Leganes tonight looking for victory to increase their chances of surviving the relegation axe in La Liga.

Deportivo have battled hard for survival in their last four games, taking seven points. The Blues and Whites, under the guidance of former Dutch star Clarence Seedorf, however, have only managed six wins in their 33 La Liga games, with nine draws and 18 defeats.

Heading into this week’s fixtures, they find themselves sitting third from bottom, five places adrift of Leganes. The Madrid team will go into this game having only won one of their last four fixtures, after suffering losses against Valencia, Barcelona and Villareal.

The last time they hosted Deportivo at home they secured a comfortabl­e 4-0 victory and that should be a motivation for the home side going into this clash. I clearly see them registerin­g another good win. Pool Name: S6 V3 P2 M1: Borussia M’gladbach v Wolfsburg. Away win for Wolfsburg. Tip: Wolfsburg win = 3 M2: Coventry City v Stevenage. Three points for City. Tip: Coventry win = 1 M3: Dijon v Olympique Lyonnais. Victory for Lyonnais. Tip: Lyonnais win = 3 M4: Millwall v Fulham. Share of the spoils Tip: draw = 2 M5: Leganes v Deportivo La Coruna. Previewed above. Tip: Win for Leganese = 1 M6: Sporting Braga v Maritimo. Easy win for Braga.
