Probable starting eleven:

Deportivo:
Aranzubia, Manuel Pablo, Colotto, Aythami, Lopo, Seoane, Juan Rodriguez, Ruben Perez, Urreta, Lassad (Saul), Adrian.

Hercules:
Calatayud, Cortes, Abraham Paz, Pamarot, Peri, Abel Aguilar, Tiago Gomes, Tote, Valdez, Drenthe, Trezeguet.

Hercules is a very interesting team. Even they are newcomers in Primera Division, they played some incredible results. For example they won against Barcelona at Nou Camp with 2:0, won against Sevilla with 2:0 and played 2:2 with Villarreal. I doubt any other team in Primera will have such score and will earn 7 points against mentioned three teams. Coach Esteban Vigo is doing an excellent job and I am sure the fans are satisfied. His main weapon is attacking pair Valdez and Trezeguet. They scored almost all goals (13 of total 14) for Hercules. And I expect they will continue that way even at Riazor. But Deportivo is playing at home, in front of their fans. Coach Miguel Angel �Lotina must try to win. That is why I am expecting an open and efficient game at Riazor.

�But there is something more. Deportivo last three home matches ended with Over 2.5 goals all, just as Hercules last three away matches. Here are the results:

�

21. 11. Deportivo - Malaga 3:0
10. 11. Deportivo - Osasuna 2:1 - Copa del Rey
31. 10. Deportivo - Espanyol 3:0
-----------------------------------------------------------------
21. 11. Espanyol - Hercules 3:0
11. 11. Malaga - Hercules 3:2 - Copa del Rey
07. 11. Osasuna - Hercules 3:0

I expect at least three goals here.
