Celta de Vigo form and stats

Overall La Liga stats at home this season for Celta de Vigo are 6-3-6 (wins-draw-losses). The Celta manager E. Coudet might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

Celta are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Real Sociedad. Before that, Celta played out a draw 0-0 when visiting Cádiz.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Celta have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found nine matches with the results: Won three, drawn one and lost five.

A decent goal production from Celta in their home games so far, with 23 goals from 15 league matches. Celta have conceded 26 from these games.
