For the Villarreal vs Celta Vigo prediction, we predict Villarreal 1-1 Celta Vigo, and this is why. Both teams are not in their best shape, as they both have one win in their last five league matches. Celta drew three of their last five league matches, and there’s a chance they could repeat the same in Villarreal.
We predict under 2.5 goals on Villarreal vs Celta Vigo, and this is why. Although three of Villarreal’s last five league matches ended with over 2.5 goals, this game could lack goals because four of Celta’s last five league games ended with under 2.5 goals.
Villarreal lost three of their last five league matches, including last weekend’s embarrassing 4-1 defeat to Real Madrid away from home. They won four and lost nine of their last 17 league matches, and they sit in the 14th position with 16 points.
Celta Vigo drew three of their last five league matches, but bounced back to winning ways when they beat Granada 1-0 at home last time out. They won two and lost eight of their last 17 league matches, and they sit in the relegation zone in 18th place with 13 points.
