Celta de Vigo - Atlético Madrid predictions

Celta de Vigo managing to pull off a victory here would be quite the upset. They are definitely underdogs, so even the home-field advantage isn’t able to push the odds lower than 4.40 for a home win.

Having a 1.78 selection on your slip can be a big boost to your potential winnings and with Atlético Madrid largely expected to beat The Sky Blues, you’d be wise to use it.

The hosts are heading into the forthcoming La Liga fixture on the back of an away defeat. Celta De Vigo held well for the first 45 minutes but a first-half stalemate turned into a narrow Elche defeat in the end.

The away team are coming on the back of a surprising victory against Real Madrid. For Atletico, the bout was a very tough matchup at home, and even their most ardent supporters weren’t too optimistic. However, after an indecisive first half, they recorded multiple consecutive goals and went on to win 5:2.

Celta De Vigo have been performing rather indifferently at Estadio de Balaídos lately with a string of 3 stalemates on home turf.

This match might present a rare opportunity to go for an Over 4.5 Goals bet. Atletico Madrid have netted 9 goals in each of their previous 3 games – which is quite a track record.

We’re just a few rounds into this year’s La Liga season and Team from Vigo are already in dire straits. They’re in the relegation zone with barely any hopes of earning points in round 8. Hopefully, they’ll be able to use the rest of the season wisely.

Atletico are doing quite well so far, earning themselves the 5th spot in the standings. They’re going to The Sky Blues as clear favourites, but they can’t afford to relax either – the end of the season is still a long way off.

The absence of injuries or suspensions means both teams will have their full lineups at their disposal for a thrilling matchup.

While it’s risky as far as betting predictions go, a Draw/Away bet in the Half Time/Full Time market is the best place to find betting value in this match. Simply put, the 4.40 odds outweigh the relatively small implied probability.
