Elche - Celta de Vigo betting tips and odds

Elche are no strangers to surprises but with 3.90 on home win here, such a result would be more of a miracle rather than surprise.

Though Celta de Vigo are the stronger team between the two, we wouldn’t call an away bet at the odds of 2.10 a safe one. It’s shaping up to be quite an exciting match.

At 15.00 betting odds, Elche were huge underdogs in their previous La Liga outing. That did not stop them from believing they could run out with a point in the bag after a tied first half. However, they failed miserably in doing so, as they stumbled to a disappointing Atlético Madrid defeat.

The Sky Blues hosted Sevilla in their previous La Liga match, which ended in a lukewarm 1:1 draw. Their performance was quite decent in the first half, but the home-field advantage and early lead were not enough to secure a victory.

The biggest issue the hosts have is a lacklustre backline. They’re currently on a bit of a trend of conceding a lot of goals – over 5 across their 3 previous matches, to be exact.

Top bookies online do not have too much faith into Elche’s ability to pull a surprise this Friday in their relegation battle. The hosts need every point they can get but with Celta De Vigo priced at 2.10 betting odds, it’s pretty clear that the visitors have the upper hand.

The longer the season continues, the more Celta De Vigo’s position as number 17th in the standings becomes worrying. They’re not set for relegation, but they’re not far off either – and this match at Elche will not be an easy one.

The hosts weren’t considered likely to win either way, but they are in a slightly worse position now. Josan, Pol Lirola, John Donald, Nicolás Fernández Mercau have all been injured recently, leaving the team’s coach with a narrower range of options.

The visitors clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, which is made even more sure thanks to the presence of their entire roster. They’ve had no injuries or suspensions recently, leaving their lineup intact for the game.

The risks involved in backing a BTTS bet for this match are minimal. Both Elche and Team from Vigo have a history of confirming the market so the 1 odds offered at 10Bet is too good to pass up.
