On Saturday evening, Celta Vigo host Atletico Madrid at the Balaidos in La Liga, as both teams look to remain unbeaten in the Spanish top-flight this season.
Celta Vigo have started the new league campaign by taking four points from their first two games. Last time out the home side recorded a 2-1 win at Levante. Celta are unbeaten in three league outings dating back to last season but have won just two of their last nine games in La Liga.
Their recent games in the Spanish top-flight have been relatively high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last eight outings.
Celta are unbeaten in 12 league games on home soil in La Liga. However, seven of those unbeaten games have finished in draws, including four of their last five games. They have also scored at least two goals in eight of their last 12 games at the Balaidos.
Atletico have started their La Liga campaign this season with a win and a draw just like the home side. Last time out Diego Simeone’s side recorded a 1-0 home victory over Rayo Vallecano.
The visitors form dating back to last season in La Liga is inconsistent, as Los Rojiblancos have won just three of their last eight league matches. Their recent games in the Spanish top-flight have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their last seven outings.
Atletico’s recent away form has been inconsistent, as the visitors have won just two of their last seven games on their travels in the Spanish top-flight. The club from the Spanish capital’s recent away games in La Liga have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five games.
Forebet predicts that this clash will be a tight encounter ending in a low-scoring draw to allow both teams to stay unbeaten.
