the spanish league
Date: Thursday, October 1, 2024
Starts at 20pm UK / 30pm CET
Venue: Balaidos Stadium (Vigo).

Estadio de Balaidos will face Celta de Vigo against one of the strongest teams in La Liga Barcelona in another match of the season. The host is known to have at least one point against stronger teams when playing at home.

The Celts are unbeaten in the league this season after drawing 1-1 away to Real Valladolid in their last league game. The two away games in the last three games ended in draws and the first home game took all three points away from Valencia.

There has been growing tension inside Barcelona and it has been in the papers for some time. However, the Blaugrana will visit after a 4-0 home win over Villarreal in this season's opener in La Liga.

Celta Vigo vs Barcelona Prediction

It cannot be said that the tensions inside the Barça camp affected their league play. They got off to a good start with a clean sheet at home. However, it has been recognized that the Barça team has problems when not playing at Camp Nou.

Celta de Vigo have a home advantage and they showed it in this season's home opener against Valencia. Playing on the back of an unbeaten streak after three matches should give the hosts a slight edge, even against Messi and company.

Furthermore, the Celts are not controlling last season's runners-up. The hosts have been unbeaten at home to Barcelona for five years. Thus, the visitor is capable of causing damage in the game, but is not likely to maintain that advantage in ninety minutes.

With those stats, leaning a BTTS will likely be a suitable in-game option. The match is becoming a high-goal affair, so betting for over 2,5 goals seems like an ideal option. The safest bet in the match will be a home win for Celta de Vigo with a +2 handicap in the match.

• Over 2,5 goals at 1,60 (3/5).

• Both teams score at 1,70 (7/10).
