Amorebieta vs Celta Vigo Prediction and Betting Tips | January 7th 2024

Amorebieta take to the pitch for the first time in 2024 when they welcome Celta Vigo to the Instalaciones de Lezama in the last 32 or the Copa del Rey on Sunday.

Rafael Benítez’s men kicked off the new year with a hard-fought victory over Real Betis in La Liga and will look to continue in the same vein.

Amorebieta rounded off their schedule for 2023 last time out when they fell to a 2-1 loss at the hands of Alcorcon at the Instalaciones de Lezama.

This capped off a disappointing first half of the season for Alejandro Castro’s men, who are currently 21st in the La Liga 2 table, only above rock-bottom Cartagena on goal difference.

Amorebieta will now look to find their feet in the Copa del Rey, where they picked up a 1-0 victory over Levante back in December.

Celta Vigo, on the other hand, kicked off the new year on a high as they scraped a 2-1 home victory over Real Betis last Wednesday.

Prior to that, Benítez’s men saw their five-game winless run come to an end in their final game of 2023 when they were beaten 3-2 by Villarreal at the Estadio de la Ceramica.

Celta Vigo, who are currently 17th in the La Liga table, now turn their sights to the Copa del Rey, where they saw off Turegno 4-2 in the opening round, five weeks before claiming a 2-1 win over Sestao River on December 7.
