Celta Vigo vs Real Betis Prediction

Los Celestes scored their first goal of the league campaign last week and will look to continue that form. Notably, they have won two of their last five games, with both wins registered on their travels.

Carl Starfelt is a confirmed absentee for Celta as the defender was injured in a training session earlier this month. Marcos Alonso is the only defender who has played full 90 minutes in the two games thus far and should retain his place in the starting XI.

Ad

Los Verdiblancos have scored two goals apiece in two games thus far and will look to improve upon that record. They are winless in their last four away games in this fixture, suffering three defeats while failing to score in two games.

Manuel Pellegrini remains without the services of Isco, Nelson Deossa, Ez Abde, Marc Roca, Diego Llorente, and Junior Firpo due to injuries. Pau López has a knock and will undergo a late fitness test.

Ad

Celta have a good recent record in this fixture, and Betis are struggling with some notable absentees. With that in mind, a low-scoring draw will likely ensue.

Prediction: Celta Vigo 1-1 Real Betis
