Barcelona vs. Deportivo La Coruña 2016 live stream: Time, TV schedule and how to watch online

Barcelona have dug themselves into a perilous and desperate situation, and they need to turn things around quickly if they don't want their hopeful title run in La Liga put into more peril than it already is. They won't have the Camp Nou crowd on their side — the Blaugranes will have to get things turned around with a visit to Deportivo La Coruña.

Now, this is a match that Barcelona should be able to win. Deportivo haven't won in their last three matches, and that win in March was their first win since beating Eibar way back in December. The last time these two teams squared off, though, ended in a draw at the Camp Nou — exactly the kind of setback that Barcelona cannot afford right now. If they can't figure out how to turn around their recent collapse in form in a hurry, their situation in the title race might become more desperate than they can manage to deal with this late in the season.

As of this weekend, Barcelona have been caught in the table on points by Atlético Madrid, and have only a one-point lead on Real Madrid. That means, straight up, that this four-match winless streak for Barcelona in La Liga play must end right now. They cannot afford any more slip-ups, not with so little time left in the season to recover from them. They absolutely have to beat Deportivo in this match, and hammering them would be preferable — Barcelona have a big goal differential edge on Atlético, but trail Real by nine in that crucial tiebreaker. They need to build up any advantage they can, so the bigger the lead the better.
