Villarreal vs Celta Vigo Betting Tips

Villarreal move smoothly into contention challenge for European qualification place towards the end of October, but a run of one draw and two defeats from their last three games have seen El Submarino Amarillo fell back to 11th. Javier Calleja's men desperately need a win this weekend to get back on track and we like them to deliver the goods against a team Celestes are without a win in 18 away league matches.

Indeed, you have to go back to December 8, 2018 for Celta last success on the road, which ironically came here in La Ceramica. Vigo secured a thrilling 2-3 victory and they repeated that scoreline in the return fixture in March at Balaidos to notch an impressive league double over El Submarino Amarillo.

achievement is one of the very few bright spark for Celta last season as they slumped to a 17th placed finish and they are not faring better this time. Celestes have lost their last five league matches, including a 4-1 beating at Barcelona last time out and sit 18th in the league, four points adrift of 17th placed Real Betis.

While the international break will give the boss time Oscar Garcia are new to working with the squad and the victory last season at La Ceramica may revive good memories, Celestes just can not imagine to take something from this game is based on the shape of their overall they run terrible six draws and 12 defeats from their last 18 La Liga matches outside Galicia.

Villarreal boss Javier Calleja will be very frustrated by losses recently away team against 15 placed Eibar (2-1) and 16th placed Mallorca (3-1) who took his record on the road this term to two wins and five defeats from seven, and clothing Valencia should improve their way if they want to remain in the hunt for European qualification this season.

Nevertheless, Villarreal remained very reliable at home, where they have won three and drawn three of six outings this term. They might have expected more than a 0-0 stalemate against Athletic Bilbao two starts ago, but the result was not a shame considering how strong defensively Los Leones that.

Before the results, Villarreal recorded three consecutive wins on their own turf against Valladolid (2-0), Real Betis (5-1) and Alaves (4-1), and repeat performances here have to see them get revenge reversal they fight Celestes in 2018/19.

So we are siding with the hosts to reach three important points with a bit rate in the hands of this Sunday afternoon, and we predict a 3-1 scoreline.

Villarreal have averaged just shy of three goals per game in La Ceramica this term and came against Celta defense that has shipped ten goals in four of their away defeats recently. However, the home side have kept only two clean sheets from six at home while Celta has netted in their last two away, so visitors can at least comfort bag.
