The Matchday 29 clash in La Liga between Celta Vigo and Las Palmas will take place on March 31 at the Balaídos Stadium in Vigo. Celta Vigo vs. Las Palmas: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Celta Vigo
Claudio Giráldez's side has won their last two matches, first defeating Leganes at home 2-1, and then securing a 1-0 victory away at Valladolid. The team is currently on a six-match unbeaten run in the league (4 wins and 2 draws). Such a long unbeaten streak in La Liga has not been seen by the Galicians since April last year. The club has climbed to eighth place, reducing the gap to the European competition spots to five points.
- Both teams scored in 8 of Celta Vigo's last 10 La Liga games.
- No more than three goals were scored in 11 of the last 13 matches involving the Galicians in La Liga.
- The club has not lost the second half in their last eight league matches (4 wins and 4 draws).
Predicted lineup for Celta Vigo (4-3-3)
Vicente Guaita – Carl Starfelt, Marcos Alonso, Oscar Mingueza, Sergio Carreira – Hugo Sotelo, Javi Rodriguez, Fran Beltrán – Alfonso Gonzalez, Iago Aspas, Borja Iglesias.
Defender Oscar Mingueza will miss the match due to an accumulation of yellow cards, while forward Williot Swedberg is out with an injury.
Las Palmas
The Canaries have not tasted victory in the league for 10 consecutive matches, drawing three times and losing seven. Consequently, the club remains the only team in La Liga yet to win this calendar year. The team is in the relegation zone but is only two points away from the safety of 17th place.
- Both teams scored in 8 of Las Palmas's last 10 La Liga matches.
- No more than three goals were scored in 11 of the last 14 games involving the Canaries in the league.
- The club has won only one first half in their last 15 La Liga matches (10 draws and 4 losses).
Predicted lineup for Las Palmas (4-4-2)
Jasper Cillessen – Alex Suarez, Alex Munoz, Juanma Herzog, Scott McKenna – Alberto Moleiro, Javier Munoz, Jose Campana, Stefan Bajcetic – Sandro Ramirez, Fabio Silva.
Midfielder Kirian Rodriguez is out due to injury.
Celta Vigo vs. Las Palmas: Match Prediction
In the first round, the Galicians defeated the Canaries on their field with a score of 1-0. However, such results are not typical for the encounters between these opponents in La Liga. Before that, the teams played eight head-to-head matches, with both teams scoring and at least three goals in each. I believe the upcoming match will also be entertaining with a high number of goals.
Celta Vigo has scored in their last 10 consecutive home matches in La Liga. They have scored at least two goals in 5 of their last 7 home league matches. Meanwhile, they have conceded in 14 of their last 19 home games in La Liga. Las Palmas has scored in 9 of their last 12 away La Liga games, but they have also conceded in 13 of their last 14 away matches in the league.
My prediction – Both teams to score – yes
