The 2021-22 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this week as Celta Vigo take on Osasuna on Wednesday. Both teams have been inconsistent this season and will want to win this game.
Osasuna are in 12th place in the La Liga standings and are yet to hit their stride this season. The Pamplona-based outfit eased past Cadiz by a 2-0 margin last week and will want a similar result from this fixture.
Celta Vigo, on the other hand, are in 14th place in the league table at the moment and have failed to meet expectations so far. The Galicians suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat against Real Sociedad in their previous game and will need to bounce back this week.
Celta Vigo vs Osasuna Head-to-Head
Celta Vigo have a slight edge over Osasuna and have won six out of 15 matches played between the two teams. Osasuna have managed five victories against Celta Vigo and will want to level the scales in this fixture.
The previous meeting between the two sides took place in August last year and ended in a 0-0 stalemate. Both teams squandered chances on the day and will need to be more clinical this week.
