Re: 26-27 Apr: Spain

Given the team news, I'm definitely with you, Chief. Barca without Iniesta and Milito through suspension, and Eto'o, Messi and Xavi are all left out in preparation for the champions league game this week. Yaya Toure is in the squad but is also expected to be rested.

As Chief has already said, Deportivo are in excellent form - 7 wins in their last 9, and they're 6-1-0 for their last 7 home games, beating Madrid and Sevilla in that run. Barca have only won 4 away games all season, only won 1 of their last 7 away games, and have conceded 11 in their last 4 aways. With their minds clearly on the champions league, and Deportivo eyeing the chance of a UEFA Cup place, the home win has to be value here. I've taken the 2.7 on Betfair, can only see that price dropping as people see the team news.
