Celta Vigo vs Villarreal Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Preview

Celta de Vigo lost yet another away match as Valencia were able to get a 2-1 win at the Mestalla. Simone Zaza scored from a near post header in the 28th minute to provide the opening goal of the game, but Celta’s top scorer Iago Aspas equalised just after half-time. Dani Parejo’s late penalty, though, sent Unzue’s team to yet another poor away result. Villarreal lost 2-0 against Barcelona at the La Ceramica to slip further away from the top four places. After striking the post twice in the game, Luis Suarez opened the scoring for the away team in the 72nd minute. A late goal from Lionel Messi further capitalised on Dani Raba’s sending-off in the 60th minute. Here we have our SBAT match preview with all the best predictions, betting tips and match stats.

The Villarreal outfit are once again severely depleted for the game due to injuries and suspensions. The absence of key players coupled with home advantage for Celta de Vigo push this as a home win. Even though Celta de Vigo have beaten Villarreal just once in the last six meetings, they might just to be able to pull themselves together due to Javier Calleja’s team being on a poor run. Iago Aspas is a player who tends to go on scoring runs. He is in the midst of one such scoring run after having come up with six goals in the last six games. Surprisingly, he has never scored against Villarreal in eight appearances, but I think that this is a game to end this drought. I would back Iago Aspas to score anytime. Celta de Vigo win – 5/4 Iago Aspas to score anytime – 11/10
