Elche - Celta de Vigo predictions

Though the match can honestly go either way, Elche will be at a bit of a disadvantage. Their victory is priced at 2.90 despite the home-field advantage, so they’ll need to bring their A-game.

Celta de Vigo are not a team that backs down from a challenge and we expect them to give their best in an effort to claim a victory in this match.

Elche head into the Sunday fixture with their head held high following a Osasuna away draw. They were not expected to come out with anything from their previous La Liga game so this point will be a big morale booster for them.

The away team ended their previous La Liga with a draw against what most considered a stronger opponent, and they did it on away grounds, too. The game was quite dull to watch but Team from Vigo can be happy with the fact they avoided a loss.

3 of Elche’s previous away games all ended in a stalemate. Such a score is far from a disaster considering these were away games, but let’s hope for more decisiveness from them on home turf.

A successful Over 2.5 Goals bet seems very unlikely, based on Celta’s previous performance. None of their 5 most recent La Liga matches featured more than 2 goals.

Though Elche are among the best-placed teams in the league, the season is only at round 7. There’s plenty of time for them to move either way, and this matchup is going to be a challenge.

Most bookies agree that both teams could realistically win. The Sky Blues’s motivation is clear - 5 points stand between them and their Europa goals. The season has only just begun, which leaves plenty of time to earn said points.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Pncl priced at 1.68 odds.
