Alaves vs Celta Vigo Predictions

• Celta Vigo are unbeaten in their last six meetings with Alaves, winning five times
• Celta won 2-1 on their last visit to the Estadio de Mendizorroza
• Both teams have scored in three of the last four meetings

Celta to prolong their unbeaten run

Alaves and Celta Vigo could still be drawn into relegation danger and both will be hoping to ease their fears this weekend with just five games remaining.

The home side are ten points clear of 18th-placed Cadiz, while Celta are just six points clear of danger.

Neither side will want to slip up with the finish line in sight, but our prediction is for a crucial away win on Saturday.

Vigo have a lengthy unbeaten record against Alaves and won 2-1 on their last visit to this venue.

A similar outcome looks likely this week as both sides chase a vital three points.

History is on visitors’ side

Alaves secured an impressive win over Atletico Madrid last week but that came on the back of a demoralising Champions League defeat for the men from the capital.

Celta are likely to be in a better frame of mind than Diego Simeone’s side were that day and history is on their side in this fixture.

Claudio Giraldez’s men are unbeaten in six meetings with El Glorioso and we predict that that run can continue this weekend.

Celta have won 2-1 and 3-1 on their last two trips to this venue, and a 2-1 scoreline is the prediction for correct score punters.
