For the Almeria vs Celta Vigo prediction, we say under 2.5 goals and this is why. Two of Almeria’s last opening three La Liga matches ended with under 25 goals while Celta Vigo’s all three first fixtures ended similarly. Both teams are poor goalscoring sides, hence either team is unlikely to score at least two goals in this encounter.
We predict Celta Vigo to win either half against Almeria and this is why. Although both teams are winless in their opening three matches, the visitors’ performance last time out against Real Madrid was good enough that a couple of fans believed they would have gotten something had they played against a lesser opponent, such as Almeria.
Almeria are winless in La Liga this season after they lost their opening two fixtures to Rayo Vallecano and Real Madrid and held Cadiz to a 1-1 draw away from home last weekend. They are still searching for their first win and welcoming struggling Celta Vigo may be exactly the match they need to get their season up and running.
Celta Vigo are also winless in La Liga this term after two defeats and one draw including last weekend’s tight 1-0 defeat at home against Real Madrid. They play as visitors on Friday at Almeria and will only think about getting a win, as the hosts are also in similar dire form.
