Friday’s La Liga action gets underway at Estadio Abanca-Balaidos, where Celta Vigo will be playing host to Alaves. O Celtina ended last season in 13th place with 41 points, while Los Blanquiazules finished 10th with 46 points. Let’s get into this opening weekend match prediction.
Celta finished last season in 13th place for the second time in a row but two points worse off than the previous campaign. While they were seldomly in danger of being relegated, they will want to move further away from the drop zone this season.
O Celtina managed a record of 10 wins, 11 draws and 17 losses last term, scoring 46 goals while conceding 57. Jorgen Strand Larsen was the side’s top-scorer with 13 goals, though he has been loaned to Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers this season.
Over the course of last season, Celta’s home record read as six wins, six draws and seven defeats in 19 games. They drew 1-1 against their upcoming opponents at this venue last term but lost 3-0 in the reverse fixture.
Meanwhile, Alaves will be well proud of their performance last season, as they managed a top-half finish in their first season back in the top flight.
Los Blanquiazules recorded 12 wins, 10 draws and 15 losses, scoring 36 and conceding 46. Samu Omorodion was their top scorer with eight but he returned to parent club Atletico Madrid over the summer.
The visitors posted just three wins, along with six draws and 11 losses on the road last season.
