Barcelona will be looking to continue their unbeaten run in La-Liga this season as they will be hosting Deportivo la Coruna on Saturday at the Camp Nou. Deportivo are currently placed 17th on the log and they'll certainly be looking forward to avoid dropping more points in order to keep away from the relegation zone.

Leo Messi is on top of the goal chart in La-Liga this season with 14 goals in 15 games. Leo Messi has scored in 8 of his last 9 league games against Deportivo, he will obviously be looking forward to add more to his tally against this bottom stricken Deportivo.

Javier Mascherano might start playing his last set of games on Saturday as his time at the camp Nou seems to have finally come to an end. The defender had received an offer from China, an offer he gladly welcomed. He will be leaving in January, which ascertained that Barca will be bringing in new player(s) when the January transfer window opens.

Barcelona will be wary as Sergio Busquets is one Yellow card away from suspension which means if he gets booked against Deportivo, he will miss the El classico match against Real Madrid.

Lucas Perez is Deportivo's top scorer so far, this season, netting four times in La-Liga. The former Arsenal returned to his old club in the summer after he fell out of the manager’s favour for selection even though he performed well anytime he get to play.

Barca remains unbeaten in 15 games, will Deportivo condemn them to their first defeat of the season? Maybe, Maybe not!

Barcelona have won the last three outings against Deportivo including an 8-0 away win last season.

Lucas Perez has not scored in his last four outings in La-Liga

This season, Deportivo have won 4 times, drew 3 and lost 8 while Barcelona have won 12 drew 3 and lost 0
