This Sunday, La Liga’s Matchday 4 features a matchup at Balaídos stadium in Vigo, where Celta faces Girona. Here’s a look at the prediction for this game and a suggested bet.
Match Preview
Celta is still looking for their first win of the season, but their recent performances have been encouraging. After a tough start against Getafe (0-2), Claudio Giráldez’s team has drawn three consecutive matches, all ending in 1-1. The team displays solid organization, especially in defense, and can pose challenges to stronger opponents.
Although Celta hasn’t won at home in their last four games, they’ve lost only once in their last eight La Liga matches. Veteran players like Iago Aspas provide crucial experience and stability, which is essential against a struggling team.
Girona has had a rough start to the season, suffering three defeats with a total score of 1-10. Míchel Sánchez’s side has faced difficulties on both defense and offense, with their away form particularly weak. Recently, Girona lost to Villarreal with a score of 0-5.
The team hasn’t found its rhythm in five matches, and facing Celta’s organized setup, it will be challenging for them to gain any points. Their best hope may lie in the individual talent of veterans like Stuani, but that may not lead to lasting improvements.
Probable Lineups
- Celta: Radu, Domínguez, Carreira, Rodríguez, Rueda, Fernández, Román, Sotelo, Aspas, Zaragoza, Durán
- Girona: Gazzaniga, Witsel, Moreno, Reis, Martínez, López, Martín, Roca, Lemar, Asprilla, Stuani
Match Facts and Head-to-Head
- Celta has lost only one of their last eight league matches.
- Girona has faced five straight defeats, allowing at least two goals in each.
- In their last ten away games in La Liga, Girona has only one win.
Prediction
Given the current form of both teams, Celta appears well-positioned to break their winless streak. Girona seems unstable, especially defensively, and shows no signs of recovery. Celta, while mostly drawing games, is accumulating points and should have enough to defeat a troubled opponent at home.
