Celta Vigo have been in swashbuckling form in recent weeks, and they will surely be aiming to bow out of the season in brilliant fashion, with nothing left to fight for. It won't be surprising to find them drawing inspiration from their most recent victory, which came at Camp Nou.

Meanwhile, Real Betis are not exactly in great form, albeit they remain undefeated in their last 10 matches in the Spanish top flight. However, they managed to pick up a narrow win in their last match, as they chase down Europa League qualification.

Celta Vigo vs Real Betis Team News

In their last outing, Celta Vigo left Camp Nou with maximum points, having pulled an upsetting 2-1 victory against an embarrassed Barcelona side. Despite going one goal down to a Lionel Messi header in the first half hour, Santi Mina pulled the visitors back on level terms ten minutes later, with seven minutes of the first period still to go.

Predictably, Barcelona were in charge of the proceedings in the second period, but they had defender Clement Lenglet sent off, with seven minutes of normal time to go. And Celta Vigo duly capitalised on the number advantage, as Santi Mina scored his second goal, which ultimately won the match for the visitors.

Indeed, a record of 14 victories, 11 draws and 12 defeats leave Los Celestes in eight position on the league standings. Although they have mustered an impressive total of 53 points so far, they still sit well off the European qualification spots, heading into the final game of the season.

Meanwhile, Real Betis are fully aware that the Europa League place is currently theirs to close, and they will undoubtedly go into the fixture with nothing but victory on their minds. Interestingly, they only cling to the European spot, owing to their better head-to-head record against seventh-placed Villarreal.

Given the Green and Whites' slow start to the campaign, it can be said that major strides were taken during the course of the season, albeit these improvements are still dented by glimpses of inconsistency.

Case in point - Real Betis's current form in the league comprises of seven draws in their last 10 matches. That said, It is worth noting that none of these ten matches ended in a defeat, as earlier stated. In fact, they copped a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Huesca last time out.

Manuel Pellegrini will surely be urging his charges to go for the kill here, as anything less could be detrimental to their season ambitions. And the Italian gaffer will be aware of the danger of complacency here, as they would be battling a different animal in this Celta Vigo, relative to the one that succumbed to a 2-1 defeat in the reverse fixture earlier on in January.

Injured or Suspended Players

Celta vs Real Betis Predictions

Real Betis are winless in their last five matches on the road in the Spanish top flight, a record they must endeavor to turn around if they are to ensure Europa League qualification this season.

However, it's proving a little difficult to separate these sides on paper, thus our foray into the goal market. We have our money on both sides scoring, with no less than two goals on the board.
