Season summary edit

Coach Joaquín Caparrós's second season in charge saw Deportivo slip into the bottom half of the table, placing 13th. This was their worst finish in La Liga since 1991–92, and ultimately cost Caparrós his job.[2] Despite fairing somewhat better in the Copa del Rey, reaching the semi-finals for the second consecutive year before losing to eventual winners Sevilla, Caparrós was replaced by Real Sociedad coach Miguel Ángel Lotina ahead of the following season.[3]

Kit edit

Deportivo's kit was manufactured by Joma and sponsored by Fadesa.
