Match Predict – Home Win
Two of Celta’s three home wins have come in their last two games, so there has clearly been a marked improvement in this respect. In addition, Rayo are the third worst away team in the league.
Correct Score – Celta Vigo 2-0 Rayo Vallecano
Celta’s last two home wins were 2-0 and 3-1, so we think that goal scoring ability can continue for this match as well. Also, Rayo’s last two away games have both ended in 2-0 defeats.
Handicap Celta Vigo (-1 goal)
As we think Celta can win this match by a difference of at least two goals, deducting one goal from them seems to us a very good Handicap for this match.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Celta Vigo vs Rayo Vallecano
Celta are probably in their best form of the season, with a very attractive and attacking game. In their last game, against Sevilla, they came very close to springing a surprise, in a game in which they were leading 0-2, but ended up conceding two goals.
Celta are undoubtedly the team that plays better away than at home. Of their 27 total points, 16 of them came away from Vigo. In three games, they went from tied at half-time and ended up losing the game, and on three other occasions they went from losing at half-time and ended up losing the game.
Rayo, on the other hand, continue with their dynamic of playing very well at home and playing terribly as visitors. Of the 31 total points they have, 26 of them have come from home and only five from away games.
Of the 22 total goals conceded by Rayo, 17 of them came with them playing as visitors. Their defensive weakness is reflected in this statistic.
Another interesting and negative fact is that Rayo playing as visitors have never led at the end of the first half. While on five occasions they ended up losing the first half and ending up losing at the end of the game.
Safe Bets
Neither team is noted for having a very high scoring record, so we think the match can have less than 2.5 total goals, which has odds of 1.61 at William Hill.
Celta Vigo vs Rayo Vallecano Team News
Celta go into this game without injuries. However, the Latin players; Orbelin Pineda, Néstor Araujo and Renato Tapia are doubtful as they have been called up by their national teams, their date of incorporation into the squad will determine their availability for this match.
Rayo will be without Martin Merquelanz due to injury, while Radamel Falcao has been called up by the Colombian national team, so his return date to Spain will determine his availability.
