Villarreal Celta de Vigo betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This confrontation tends to be quite busy, considering that it faces two direct opponents in the fight for a spot in the next Europa League and also that they have suffered many goals in situations similar to the game this Saturday. Villarreal conceded goals in 10 of its last 11 home games and 7 of those matches ended up with both teams scoring goals. Celta de Vigo, meanwhile, did not concede goals in only 2 of its 17 away matches. Given these factors, we believe in an open game, with good offensive volume from both sides and both teams should score goals.

Preview
Villarreal and Celta de Vigo meet at Camp El Madrigal, in a match for the 35th round of the Primera División. Villarreal got an away win by (0‑1), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 17‑12‑2017. The head‑to‑head record at this stadium couldn't be more balanced, as it shows 2 wins for each team in the last 4 head‑to‑heads. Nevertheless, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, on 16‑10‑2016, for the Primera División, Villarreal won by (5‑0). R. Soriano (8' and 12' ), C. Bakambu (38' ), D. Wass (48' Autogolo) and Trigueros (90' ) scored the goals of the match for Villarreal. Celta de Vigo registers significant differences between home and away results, so special attention is due to the home/away factor.

Analysis Villarreal

After 15 wins, 6 draws and 12 losses, the home team is in the 6th position, havinf won 51 points so far. In the last match, they have won at home against Leganés by (2‑1), after in the previous match they have tied (2‑2) an away match against Sevilla. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 1 draw and 7 losses at their stadium. For the league, Villarreal won 16 points out of 30 possible points, after 5 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses in the last 10 home matches. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 1‑0 (6 out of 16 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 14 of the last 16 matches for this competition have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In 33 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 13 times and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 16 home matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 7 of their 19 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Villarreal returned to win after 3 rounds and now goes in search of another positive result to stay in the qualification zone for the next Europa League. The team has an attack that leaves a little to be desired, scored 45 goals and is only the ninth best of the competition, while the defense suffered 40 goals and is the sixth less leaked, although it has fallen a bit defensively in the last rounds, needing to rediscover the defensive solidity of the past rounds. Playing at home, as this Saturday's clash, Villarreal has been alternating between good and bad results, so much so that in the last 6 matches, won 3 and lost 3, noting that it did not concede goals in only 1 of its last 11 home games, again demonstrating the decline in defensive yield. For the clash with Celta de Vigo, coach Javi Calleja has no problems in the team that has been active in the last rounds and should repeat the lineup of the last games.

Confirmed Lineup: Sergio Asenjo, Víctor Ruíz, Antonio Rukavina, Mario Gaspar, Álvaro González, Samu Castillejo, Rodri Hernández, Denis Cheryshev, Manu Trigueros, Raba, Carlos Bacca.

Analysis Celta Vigo

The away team is currently in the 10th position of the league, with 45 points won, after 12 wins, 9 draws and 13 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Barcelona, by (2‑2). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Valencia, by (1‑1). 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 4 wins, 2 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 27 conceded; against 7 wins, 6 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 24 goals scored and 14 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Celta de Vigo has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches, the most frequent final score was the 2‑1 (6 out of 17 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away mathes there is a tendency for goals, since 13 of the last 17 matches for this competition have ended with Over 2,5 goals. In 34 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 16 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Celta de Vigo has gone through a poor phase in the Spanish league, won only 1 of its last 7 games and is looking for a recovery to return to the fight for a place in the next Europa League. The team has a reasonable attack that has scored 53 goals and is the seventh best of the competition while the defense has suffered 47 goals and is the ninth most leaked, needing to be more solid in this sector where it has left many spaces to its opponents. Playing away from home, as the match of Saturday, Celta de Vigo comes in a bad sequence of 6 games without winning where it lost 5 and drew 1 and it is worth noting that it did not concede goals in only 2 of the 17 away games. For the confrontation against Villarreal, coach Unzué will go to the field with the same team that beat Leganés in the last round, being Iago Aspas the top scorer of the team and the fourth best scorer in this edition of La Liga.

Confirmed Lineup: Sergio Álvarez, Gustavo Cabral, Sergi Gómez, Hugo Mallo, Jonny Castro, Jozabed, Stanislav Lobotka, Daniel Wass, Brais Méndez, Pione Sisto, Maximiliano Gómez.
