On Wednesday night, Valencia host Celta Vigo at the Mestalla in La Liga, as the home side attempts to get their season back on track.
Valencia were one of the surprise packages of last season in La Liga, finishing fourth place in the table. However, Los Ches have made a poor start to the new campaign, failing to win any of their five league games so far this season, drawing four and losing once.
Last time out in La Liga, Marcelino’s team drew 0-0 with Villarreal. The game was another low scoring match for the home side this season, as four of their last five La Liga games have produced under 2.5 goals.
Los Ches have a mixed recent home record in La Liga, as they have won just one of their last five games on home soil, but have also lost just once in their last ten games at the Mestalla. Their recent La Liga games have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four matches at the Mestalla.
Celta Vigo have enjoyed an inconsistent start to their La Liga campaign, but find themselves fifth-place in the fledgeling top-flight table. Celta drew 3-3 with Valladolid last time out in the Spanish top-flight.
The visitors have been prolific of late in La Liga, scoring at least two goals in their last four matches in the Spanish top-flight. That attacking prowess has also led to three of their last four games producing over 2.5 goals.
Celta has an awful recent away record in the Spanish top-flight, winning just one of their last ten games on their travels, suffering eight defeats in the process.
The visitors have failed to keep a clean sheet on their travels in 11 games, while also conceding at least twice in three of their last four away games in La Liga.
Forebet predicts that this game will finish in a low scoring draw, which will only add to the home side’s recent woes in the Spanish top-flight.
