There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the La Liga table so far. Here's the Valencia - Celta de Vigo latest:
- Valencia haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
- Celta de Vigo has the most matches over the total-line (15) in La Liga
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
It's quite the trip for Celta de Vigo when visiting Valencia as the cities are 900 kilometers apart.
Valencia form and stats
Valencia have played 11 La Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-5-3 (wins-draws-losses).
In their previous game, the manager J. Gracia Carlos led his Valencia to a defeat in the La Liga match away at Real Madrid. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Estadio de Mestalla. Preceding that game was the away draw at Athletic Club that finished 1-1.
This is expected to be a close game, with Valencia perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Valencia as a small favourite), we find three games. Valencia has won one of these, drawn zero and lost two.
Valencia are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 16 goals in 11 games. On the other hand, Valencia have conceded 14 goals.
Celta de Vigo form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Celta de Vigo so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 1-7-4 (win-draw-lose). Two points from the last two away games for Celta, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
The supporters enjoyed Celta's previous game versus Elche (placed 19th), a La Liga 3-1 win played at home. Preceding that game, the 2-2 draw paying a visit to Atlético Madrid.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Celta de Vigo playing away and similar expectations, we found 13 relevant matches. Results were one Celta de Vigo win, six draws and six defeats.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Celta as they have only managed to score 11 times from 12 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Celta de Vigo have seen the ball go into their own net 16 times on the road.
