Atletico Madrid to host Deportivo La Coruna at Riyadh Air Metropolitano on October 24 in LaLiga matchweek 10

Atletico Madrid will face Deportivo La Coruna at Riyadh Air Metropolitano on October 24 in matchweek 10 of the LaLiga 2026-27 season, with Atletico seeking to build on a strong start to the campaign.

Atletico sit second in the table after recording seven wins from their first nine matches and entering this fixture off a 1-0 victory over Espanyol; the home side will aim to extend that run. Deportivo occupy ninth place with two wins in nine games and have managed only one win in their last five matches, having been held to a 1-1 draw by Levante in their most recent league outing.

Julian Alvarez scored his first goal of the season for Atletico Madrid when he equalised in a 1-1 Champions League draw against VfB Stuttgart, providing the club with a timely contribution ahead of this domestic assignment. The source describes Alvarez as an Argentine striker whose recent goal should aid his confidence for league action.

Deportivo’s 22-year-old Cameroonian forward Bil Nsongo was among his side’s best performers in the 1-1 draw with Levante, breaking the deadlock in that match though his strike was not enough to secure victory. Deportivo will enter the fixture as the away team, a factor the source notes will increase pressure on the visitors.

Availability issues have been reported for both clubs: Atletico will be without Cristian Romero and Koke due to injury. Deportivo will miss Bright Ede, Noe, Marc Casado, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Zakaria Eddahchouri through injury, while Yeremay Hernandez might also be unavailable because of a lack of fitness.

The article lists the anticipated lineups as follows. Atletico Madrid: Oblak (GK); Pubill, Le Normand, Hancko, Martinez; Simeone, Barrios, Hjulmand; Lee; David, Alvarez. Deportivo La Coruna: Roman (GK); Navarro, Gimenez, Loureiro, Quagliata; Rodriguez, Villares, Soriano, Cruz; Asp, Nsongo.
