The 2023-24 edition of La Liga is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Celta Vigo lock horns with Valencia in an important clash at the Estadio de Mestalla on Saturday.
Valencia vs Celta Vigo Preview
Celta Vigo are currently in 18th place in the La Liga standings and have largely failed to meet expectations so far this season. The Galician outfit slumped to a narrow 4-3 defeat at the hands of Athletic Bilbao last week and will need to bounce back in this match.
Valencia, on the other hand, are in ninth place in the league table at the moment and have stepped up to the plate so far this season. Los Che suffered a damaging 5-1 defeat at the hands of Real Madrid in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
