Deportivo La coruna vs Getafe

9/2- The competition at the bottom of the table is getting closer and the fight to keep out of the relegation zone is turning out to be more intense than the fight at the top of the table. With 4 teams locked near the bottom of the table on the same points each team is trying to keep away from the dreaded bottom three positions. Deportivo La Coruna have had a terrible season and only because of two victories in the last two matches they have been able to get out of the relegation zone where they spent most of their time this season. Though they are on the 17^th position they still have the threat of relegation as they are on the same points as Murica, which is placed 18^th on the table and is in the relegation zone. The only factor that has saved Deportivo is the higher goal difference. In such a situation they get ready to take on Getafe at home, Getafe are another team that are fighting the same threat, though they are better off on the 13^th spot the difference between them is just 4 points.

Deportivo have all of a sudden found a life line in their performances in the last two weeks, their last game against Real Betis ended in a victory for the side and getting a full three points of that match would have done a world of good to the confidence of the side. Guardado and Tejada would be expected to fire and score some important goals and secure important points for the side.

Getafe on the other hand would want at least a point of this match especially after they lost to Espanyol in the match they played last week, with a 0-1 margin.  A win for Getafe could propel them to near the top half of the table and this would make the tie even more interesting.

Prediction: 1-0, Deportivo win
