Deportivo A Coruña host Sevilla in an intriguing La Liga fixture on September 16, 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 17:00 at Estadio Abanca-Riazor. Both clubs have made encouraging starts: Deportivo are unbeaten after five league matches, while Sevilla have collected three victories from the same number of games. The hosts sit sixth in the standings, immediately behind fifth-placed Sevilla, adding further significance to a contest between two sides separated by fine margins. Deportivo arrive after a 1-1 draw with Getafe, whereas the visitors strengthened their positive opening with a 1-0 victory over Valencia. With both teams averaging more than 1.5 goals scored per match, this Deportivo A Coruña vs Sevilla preview points toward a competitive encounter featuring two confident teams.

Deportivo A Coruña's Recent Form and Key Stats

Deportivo A Coruña have adapted confidently to La Liga, recording two wins and three draws without suffering a defeat. Their opening five matches have produced an average of 1.8 goals scored and 1.2 conceded per game. The sequence began with a 1-1 draw against Elche, when Deportivo conceded a late equaliser, before a goalless away result against Málaga.

Their most impressive performances came against Valencia and Villarreal. Deportivo defeated Valencia 3-1 after delivering a commanding display, then secured a 3-2 victory over Villarreal. Their latest fixture ended 1-1 against Getafe on September 13, with Aubameyang finding the net again. Across their last five games, the Galician side have therefore collected two victories and three draws.

Deportivo's consistency in front of goal is one of the clearest themes surrounding this match. They have scored at least once in each of their last 18 matches, while 19 of their previous 20 fixtures have produced over 1.5 total goals. The same threshold has been reached in each of their last 10 home games. They have also lost only one of their previous 10 matches at Estadio Abanca-Riazor.

Aubameyang has been the central figure in that attacking output, registering five goals and two assists across five league appearances. Luismi Cruz has contributed one goal and one assist while providing a regular threat. Mario Soriano and Amatucci offer further options in midfield, and Leo Román has also played an important role in goal. Summer additions Giménez and Adama Traoré brought further experience and directness to a squad assembled with ambitious objectives.

Sevilla's Recent Form and Key Stats

Sevilla travel to La Coruña with three wins, one draw and one defeat from their first five La Liga fixtures. They have averaged 1.6 goals scored and 1.2 conceded per game, placing them one point and one position above Deportivo in the early standings. Their latest result was a 1-0 success over Valencia on September 11.

Luis García Plaza's team opened the campaign with two notable victories, beating Rayo Vallecano 2-1 before winning 3-1 against Athletic Club. Athletic played approximately 80 minutes with one fewer player, but Sevilla still produced a firm and effective performance. Their only defeat came in a 3-1 loss to Atlético de Madrid, with Sevilla experiencing particular difficulty during the first half.

The visitors responded by drawing 1-1 with Espanyol despite Sangante's dismissal, then returned to winning ways against Valencia. Those results leave Sevilla with three victories, one draw and one loss across their last five matches. Rather than relying on a single standout scorer, their progress has been built around collective efficiency.

Vlachodimos, Kike Salas and Iglesias have been important defensive figures, while Agoumé provides balance in midfield. Fofana has also made a strong early contribution through his work rate and ability on the ball, and Miguel Sierra has emerged as another useful presence. One away trend will encourage Deportivo, however: Sevilla have conceded at least one goal in 19 of their last 20 away matches. In addition, 19 of their previous 21 away fixtures have featured at least one second-half goal.

Probable Lineups for Deportivo A Coruña vs Sevilla

Deportivo A Coruña: Leo Román, Giménez, Noubi, Ximo Navarro, Quagliata, Amatucci, Casadó, Mario Soriano, Luismi Cruz, Nsongo and Aubameyang.

Sevilla: Vlachodimos, Salas, Castrín, Iglesias, Suazo, Agoumé, Fofana, Guridi, Ejuke, Sierra and Ure.

Deportivo A Coruña vs Sevilla Match Analysis

The numbers suggest a closely balanced match. Deportivo remain unbeaten and have home advantage, but Sevilla have won three of their opening five league games. The calculated win probabilities give Deportivo A Coruña 44%, compared with 27% for the draw and 29% for Sevilla. Those figures make the hosts the most likely individual winner without indicating a clear-cut advantage.

The goals markets offer another important angle. Both Teams To Score is rated at 55%, while over 2.5 goals stands at 51%. Deportivo's ongoing scoring sequence and Sevilla's record of conceding in 19 of their last 20 away matches provide support for a game in which the home side should create opportunities. At the same time, Sevilla's average of 1.6 goals per league match underlines their own ability to contribute going forward.

Deportivo's main advantage could be the form of Aubameyang, whose five goals and two assists have made him their most productive attacking player. Sevilla's collective organisation will be tested by that individual threat, while the hosts must respect a visiting side that has already beaten Rayo Vallecano, Athletic Club and Valencia. The last recorded head-to-head meeting finished 0-0 on April 17, 2018, although the broader head-to-head summary gives Deportivo no wins, two draws and three defeats, with averages of one goal scored and two conceded.

Current form carries greater relevance into this meeting. Deportivo have produced over 1.5 total goals in 19 of their last 20 matches, including all of their previous 10 at home. Combined with the scoring averages of both teams and Sevilla's repeated away concessions, a match containing at least two goals appears to be the most coherent conclusion.

Deportivo A Coruña vs Sevilla prediction from BetMines: Over 1.5 goals with 75% probability.
