Celta Vigo vs Girona Preview

Girona are currently in eighth place in the La Liga standings and have been fairly impressive so far this season. The Catalan outfit suffered a narrow 2-1 defeat at the hands of Villarreal over the weekend and will need to bounce back in this fixture.

Celta Vigo, on the other hand, are in 15th place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best over the past year. The Galician giants slumped to a 2-1 defeat against Athletic Bilbao in their previous game and have a point to prove this week.
