Celta de Vigo - Elche betting tips and odds

If you’re looking for a relatively safe result bet, a home win at odds of 1.56 is a solid option. That said, Elche may yet be able to pull off a surprise, maybe even in the form of a stalemate.

With a matchup like this, it seems like we already know the outcome. Elche stand little chance of achieving anything except an appearance. Most bookies price an away win for this match at 8.00, marking an insurmountable difference.

Celta de Vigo are coming off from a 2:2 draw in an away game at Atlético Madrid . Betting predictions for that game were heavily in their opponents’ favour, though, so the fact that they pulled off a draw both at half time and as the final result is a success, relatively speaking.

Elche are coming off from an unexpected 2:2 draw in the previous round of La Liga. At odds of 20.00, no one expected them to win – especially not after they fell behind in the first half. At those odds, even a draw can be counted as a success.

Team from Vigo tend to concede quite a lot when playing at home, strangely enough. For example, the ball ended up in their net more than 5 times over the course of their latest 3 home games.

The most relevant bit of history we have for Elche is their high concession rate at recent home games. After more than 5 goals conceded in 3 games, their fans have warranted concerns over the squad’s defensive performance.

Elche are in position 19th in the league table. It’s still too early to be overly pessimistic, but they’re in a tough spot. Avoiding relegation is getting harder with each passing round.

With several tied games behind them, the teams will be looking to switch things up to get the upper hand. Several matches between Celta De Vigo and Elche ended in a draw this season alone, so it’s clear they’ll need to get creative – especially the hosts.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 2.20, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
