By their standards, Celta Vigo have been decent this campaign and have not put a foot wrong in majority of their fixtures. In fact, they have staged some high-profile upsets this term, most notably, the 2-2 draw against Barcelona a week ago.

Showing glimpses of brilliance at times, inconsistency has become their undoing, failing to string impressive results on a regular basis. If they are to retain their top-flight status, the Celtics will need to turn performance levels up a notch.

Now scheduled to take on fellow bottom-half side Real Betis, Junyent’s charges will be looking to snatch all three points from the claws of this foe. Given Los Verdiblancos’ strength this term, Vigo will have to be at their best on Saturday to stand any chances against this stubborn opposition.

With the top-half of the standings looking far from reach, Real Betis will set their sights on finishing as high as possible on the log. Hoping to avoid plummeting down, Los Verdiblancos will need some positive results over the coming weeks to retain their league position.

In a bid to steer clear of Real Valladolid and Alaves, the Glorious made a trip to the Benito Villamarin to take on high-flying Villarreal on the last matchday. Hell-bent on breaking into top-four, the Yellow Submarines put forth a strong performance to see off their relatively weaker opposition.

Dominating proceedings for large parts of the game, two first-half goals from Moreno made sure of the three points just half-way through the match. Indeed, Villarreal were the better side and were fully deserving of the comfortable 2-0 victory.

Flirtatious with relegation once again, you cannot but wonder whether Celta Vigo can ever distance themselves from relegation obscurity for one season, at the least. Luckily for the Sky Blues, they are some way off the drop-zone with a five-point safety buffer.

Tackling fellow strugglers Mallorca last time out, Junyent’s charges were deemed slight favorites for the win. Headed into the game in high-spirits, the Celtics were completely outclassed and dominated from start to finish.

Celta Vigo failed to weather through a Mallorca early onslaught with the Vermilions racing to a first-half four-goal lead. Another goal after the restart ensured Mallorca sealed a resounding 5-1 victory, taking the Sky Blues to the cleaners.

For this fixture, Celta Vigo are the more desperate side, given their battle for La Liga survival. They have been imperious on home turf with only one loss from their previous five games. Also, they have managed five wins from their 16 home fixtures, three of which had come from their past five games.

Meanwhile, Betis are not faring any better than their opposition having managed a single win from their preceding five games. Also, they are on a four-game losing run on the road, and have managed just three goals from their previous five excursions.

Celta vs Betis Predictions

Real Betis are heading into this game on the back of a two-game losing streak in the league. They have failed to register a single goal in each of these games. For all their struggles, Los Verdiblancos will take confidence in the fact that they came out tops in the reverse fixture of this match.

However, given Celta Vigo’s recent run of form and their desperation for points, they will be giving Betis a run for their money here. The safest punt will be a double chance backing the hosts for the win.
