Celta de Vigo - Real Sociedad predictions

Though the match can honestly go either way, Celta de Vigo will be at a bit of a disadvantage. Their victory is priced at 3.40 despite the home-field advantage, so they’ll need to bring their A-game.

Real Sociedad will need to bring their top form if they want 3 points from this matchup – and they do. The Sky Blues are not easy pickings, although the visitors are widely seen as close favourites.

Celta are coming on the back of an away draw (1:1) in the previous round against Mallorca . The score was tied at both half-time and the final whistle, which isn’t too bad for Celta considering the 2.60 odds on them.

While La Real’s previous loss is bad news for them, it’s hard to say anyone was surprised. They were fighting against overwhelming odds as visitors, so the narrow 2:1 loss against Athletic Bilbao was in line with most betting predictions.

If Celta want to salvage the La Liga season, they will need to go after three points this Saturday. Such a thing will be easier said than done knowing they currently occupy the &TABLE_POSITION place in the standings. Relegation is a threat for the hosts and their fans have every right to feel concerned.

Both teams will have to play with an above-average number of injures. Joseph Aidoo, Franco Cervi, Carl Starfelt are unavailable for the hosts. Conversely, Carlos Fernández, Umar Sadiq, Takefusa Kubo, Martín Merquelanz, Odriozola will not be able to play on the visiting side. The odds still favour La Real, though.

Though it’s a stretch, a Draw bet is likely the best option when it comes to betting on this match. With the odds at 3.20 with William Hill, it’s not exactly the safest of bets – but it’s quite strong when it comes to value.
