Deportivo La Coruna host Levante on 16 October 2026 at 22:00 in La Liga's ninth round. Deportivo sit eighth with 10 points from eight matches, a goal difference of 12:11. Levante have won once all season, against Betis 5–2, and remain winless away from home with two draws and two defeats.
Deportivo average 1.50 goals for and 1.38 against per match. Levante score 1.57 but concede 2.14. Both teams play open football. Deportivo's last outing saw them lose 2–3 to Real Sociedad after trailing 0–2 but pulling back two goals in the second half. Levante drew 3–3 with Sevilla in their previous fixture, scoring twice in added time from 0–2 down. In eight of Deportivo's last ten home league matches, total shots on target exceeded 7.5.
Levante's away record is blunt: they scored one goal or fewer in nine of their last ten league visits. Deportivo's defence leaks chances—Levante rank second in expected goals conceded (xG 2.1)—while Deportivo create regularly and allow opponents space. Over 2.5 goals has landed in seven of Deportivo's eight matches this season.
Form and H2H
Deportivo won back-to-back matches against Valencia (3–1) and Villarreal (3–2) before stumbling: two draws and two defeats, including the recent loss to Real Sociedad. They have conceded in all but one of their last ten home games and scored in all eight of their 2026–27 fixtures so far.
Levante's season is fractured. One win in eight matches, three draws, three defeats. Away from home they have managed just one goal across their last ten league visits. Their defensive shape breaks down consistently: in nine of ten recent away games they committed fewer than 26.5 fouls, and in nine of ten they recorded fewer than 1.5 offsides, suggesting a team that sits deep and struggles to press.
Head-to-head records favour Deportivo. They won 2–0 at home in May 2015 and 2–1 in March 2016. The most recent draw was 1–1 in November 2015. In five of the six previous meetings, the teams combined for three or more goals.
Best Bet
Over 2.5 goals. Deportivo's home form and Levante's defensive fragility point to a high-scoring match. Deportivo have landed over 2.5 in seven of eight league games this season. Levante concede 2.14 per match and have shipped three goals in two of their last three outings. Deportivo's attacking output at home, paired with Levante's inability to keep clean sheets, makes the over the most straightforward play. Back Over 2.5 at 1xBet at 1.90.
Odds to Watch
Deportivo win is priced at 2.17 on 1xBet. The draw sits at 3.62. Levante's away record and single goal across ten recent visits make the away win at 3.60 a long shot. If you favour a home win, 1xBet offers 2.17. The draw at 3.62 reflects Levante's tendency to scrape results from losing positions, though they rarely score enough away to force stalemates. Deportivo's home advantage and superior goal output make the home win the most likely outcome.
