Celta Vigo are in a battle against relegation following a modest return of just twenty points from twenty-four games played. It leaves Rafael Benitez’s side sitting in seventeenth place and the team have lost 50% of their games played, with just four wins in the bag although they will hope to land at least a point at Balaidos this weekend.
It has been four defeats in the space of the past five matches which doesn’t bode well although there was a stunning 3-0 victory at Osasuna recently before a 3-2 reverse against Getafe which saw Benitez’s team produce a comeback before conceding a late winner. The big issue is the lack of goals that have been scored this term.
Celta have managed to find the net just eight times and that could lead punters to not only bet on Barcelona but also wager them to keep a clean sheet. Although you can criticise Xavi’s team, they still boast plenty of quality players and that unbeaten record on the road means we can be confident that they will avoid defeat.
Yamine Lamal isn’t just a star of the future but a current match winner and perhaps the sixteen-year-old will be once again on target for Barca, with the team enjoying a 3-1 victory away to Alaves in their past road game. Robert Lewandowski remains a sharp shooter who has found the net in the previous two games and the Pole could be a good Bet Builder pick.
