The matchday 18 fixture between European contenders Celta Vigo and relegation-threatened Valencia in Vigo, which marks the return of La Liga after the winter break, is expected to be a close match. This match between the seventh-placed Celestes and the 17th-placed Ches comes with our prediction of less than 2.5 goals.
Celta have 23 points from 17 matches (W5, D8, L4), which saw them go into the break five points behind the top six, while being three points ahead of 11th-placed Getafe. Valencia’s 16 points (W3, D7, L7) see them start this round one point above the relegation zone but only two points behind 18th.
Celta drew 0-0 away at Real Oviedo in their last match before the break for an eighth stalemate of the season. Five wins across their last eight games (D1, L2) gave them enough impetus to push for European qualification.
Home form still needs a lift because Celta have won only once in nine home league games this season (D5, L3).
Valencia drew 1-1 at home against Mallorca before the break, keeping them closer to the relegation zone. With just one win from their last 12 league games (D6, L5), they are struggling for impact.
Being on the road hasn’t helped either, as Valencia are yet to win away from home in La Liga this season (D3, L5).

Our Celta Vigo vs Valencia Prediction
Celta Vigo and Valencia went into the winter break in contrasting moods. While Celta remained just outside European places, Valencia are only marginally above the relegation zone. Celta seem to have come out of their mood for draws lately, winning five of their last eight league fixtures. Valencia, on the other hand, have developed an affinity for draws, with four stalemates in their last six La Liga games.
Both teams have consistently been involved in low-scoring games, and that’s why our Celta Vigo vs Valencia prediction is less than 2.5 goals.
