Betting on Celta de Vigo
The team coached by Carlos Carvalhal has had a not very memorable campaign in La Liga, and the chances of achieving something valuable at the end of the season are scarce. However, the Celta de Vigo vs Real Valladolid duel is important to avoid giving advantage to the teams behind in the standings.
In the last match against Real Sociedad, Celta drew by a score of 1-1 thanks to Robin Le Normand’s own goal. Although it had several opportunities, again the lack of efficiency was noticeable, and as a result, the squad is ranked 14th in the Spanish tournament.
This Celta de Vigo vs Real Valladolid is a duel that could imply an important advance in terms of positions in La Liga. So far, the Celtistas have a record of 6 wins, 6 draws and 10 defeats in 22 games.
Possible lineup (4-4-2): Iván Villar; Óscar Mingueza, Joseph Aidoo, Unai Núñez, Javier Galán; Carles Pérez, Gabriel Veiga, Fran Beltrán, Luca de la Torre; Iago Aspas, Jörgen Larsen.
Betting on Real Valladolid
The visitors come into this big game, with the ambition to win to keep dreaming of a place to compete at international level next season. The Pucelanos are ranked 15th in the Spanish competition with 24 points from their 7 wins and 3 draws.
The team coached by José Rojo lost 2-1 in their last match against Real Betis. Defensive errors took their toll, as the Greens’ second goal came from the penalty spot.
A major loss for the team after this match is goalkeeper and captain Jordi Masip, who suffered a left acromioclavicular joint injury that will keep him out of the field for approximately two months.
Possible lineup (4-5-1): Álvaro Aceves; Luis Pérez, Martin Hongla, Javier Sánchez, Lucas Olaza; Monchu, Enrique Pérez, Gonzalo Plata, Óscar Plano, Darwin Machís; Cyle Larin.
JefeBet Prediction
For this match, we believe that Celta and Real Valladolid will share the points, since both arrive with the same number of points and similar results. Although Valladolid has the disadvantage of not having its star goalkeeper and of being away, Celta is not a reliable team defensively, so it will be an even duel.
Prediction: 1-1 draw.
