Celta Vigo vs Atletico Madrid Predictions

• Five of Celta Vigo’s last six home league outings have seen both teams net
• Atletico have scored in each of their last six fixtures
• Celta haven’t won a single game against a team currently in La Liga’s top six

Celta finding form

Celta Vigo have been in good touch since the World Cup, winning three of their last five league games, including a 4-3 defeat of Real Betis last weekend.

That form very much coincides with Carlos Carvalhal getting his feet under the table, with the new manager losing only three of his 11 matches in charge, six of which have seen both teams score.

Indeed, The Sky Blues have only kept one home clean sheet since the Portuguese took charge, as well as picking up merely one victory at home from five attempts, with three of those fixtures ending all square.

Inconsistent Atleti better on the road

Atletico Madrid now sit fourth in La Liga, and it is their away form which is keeping them in the Champions League positions, thanks to six wins from ten matches.

Four of those have seen both teams score, including three of the last five, while Diego Simeone’s side have netted in all bar one of their clashes on their travels.

They have been boosted by Memphis Depay’s arrival, although he is yet to score his first goal for the club, and are looking to extend a run of three defeats in 14 La Liga outings, in which they have kept only five clean sheets.

I predict that both teams will score in this game, but it could be tight, with 1-1 my correct score prediction.
