Real Madrid – Deportivo La Coruna. Konstantin Genich’s prediction

So Zinedine Zidane is now managing Real Madrid. This was a surprise reassignment, but some people expected that to happen. This is a huge risk for Real Madrid because it’s quite different job for a manager experienced just in coaching of Real Castilla. But Zidane, once a great player, have all the opportunities to become a great manager. His first test is a game against Deportivo La Coruna. There were rumors that a lot of Real Madrid players who confronted with Rafael Benitez are now looking forward to work with Zidane. So everybody now consider Real Madrid to play spectacular football with lot of goals. And the first game to show all that is a home game against Deportivo.

Deportivo La Coruna are playing lovely this season and their high place in table is not a surprise. So this will be not a pleasure cruise for Real Madrid. But they will fight for Zidane and for their fans. I think that goals will come. Real Madrid were ok against Valencia with all that nice passing play especially in the first half. So we can surely predict over 1.5 goals in the first half on Santiago Bernabeu at 1.73.

And what if both teams will score just one goal in the first half? Than we can take over 3.5 goals in this match at 1.67.
