Deportivo La Coruna left-back Ayoze Diaz has admitted that Real Madrid remain a "great team" despite their five La Liga defeats so far this season.

Diaz said that Real's poor form away from home still does not mean Depor should expect anything when the two sides clash on Sunday.

"Madrid usually win all their games and it is true that this year they have lost more games than last, but that does not mean anything," Diaz told reporters.

"They are a great team and with a team as strong as theirs they expect to win."

Depor are currently rock-bottom of La Liga.
