Celta de Vigo - Elche betting tips and odds

Most fans are expecting nothing short of a decisive victory for Celta de Vigo. Though an upset is not impossible, it’s extremely unlikely that this match will end in anything that’s not a home win.

It’s hard to believe even the most optimistic Elche fans are expecting them to triumph at Team from Vigo this Wednesday. It’s a completely one-sided matchup, and the hosts should have no problems steamrolling their opponents.

Team from Vigo’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Real Madrid as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 2:0 loss for Celta.

Elche are coming on the back of a 0:2 defeat at home, which was painful but hardly unexpected. Not many La Liga betting predictions expected them to be able to stand up to Valencia, and they fell behind fairly early.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over Elche’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

After 31 games played, Elche only managed to put together 13 points. This landed them at the number 20th spot in the standings, which means they’re at risk of relegation. To make matters worse, winning even a single point in Estadio de Balaídos seems quite unlikely at this point.

This is the second time we’re seeing these two sides clash this season. The first game went The Sky Blues’s way, albeit with a difference of only one goal. Still, such a record makes it easy to see why they’re the favourites this time around.

Joseph Aidoo, Óscar Mingueza, Agustin Marchesin, Carles Pérez will all have to sit this one out due to injuries, leaving the home team’s lineup in a weakened state. They still have an advantage according to betting prices, but it may not be as notable as it would have been otherwise.

To balance out this match, we suggest taking a -1.5 Asian Handicap on the obvious favourites in this game. This should increase your returns substantially while still keeping things relatively risk-free.
