Celta de Vigo Villarreal betting prediction

The away team is currently in the 6^th position of the league, with 21 points won, after 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Leganés, by (3‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Barcelona, by (0‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 17 goals scored and 21 conceded; against 9 wins, 3 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 30 goals scored and 13 conceded. In the last 8 away league matches Villarreal has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 24 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (4 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 7 of the last 8 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 15 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 6 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 13 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 6 of their 17 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Villarreal has been undefeated for six rounds in the Spanish Championship, with four wins, but now is going through a difficult time in the competition, having not won for four rounds, coming from three consecutive defeats. In its last clash, the team saw Barcelona dominate the game, finishing with only nine finalizations and 32% of ball possession, registering another setback at home. Although it is far from the numbers of Barcelona, Valencia and Real Madrid, the team has been characterized by a good offensive system, which is among the eight best in the competition. Away from home, the team owns the sixth best campaign, and in this condition also has the sixth best attack. It is likely that the coach will organize the team in the 4-1-2-1-2 or in the 4-4-2, and will not be able to count on Raba, who is suspended.

Confirmed Lineup: Sergio Asenjo, Mario Gaspar, Jaume Costa, Álvaro González, Víctor Ruíz, Rodri Hernández, Samu Castillejo, Pablo Fornals, Roberto Soriano, Manu Trigueros, Carlos Bacca.
Coach: U. Emery Etxegoien.
