Celta Vigo vs Deportivo Alaves Prediction
Celta Vigo Form
Celta Vigo have been a bit bleak in their last three matches, although it opened with a 2-3 victory against Almeria. Unable to follow that up, they went down 0-1 against Mallorca, before handing over all three points in a 3-2 defeat against Barcelona. Celta Vigo only managed one meagre home win from a possible six at Abanca Balaidos in the La Liga. They also drew one and lost four of these six encounters, in which they scored four and conceded eight goals.
Deportivo Alaves Form
Deportivo Alaves have been a bit bleak in their last three matches, although it started with a 1-0 win against Valencia. Unable to follow that up, they went down 2-0 against Rayo Vallecano, before handing over all three points in a 0-2 defeat against Athletic Bilbao. In their last six La Liga away matches, Deportivo Alaves failed to win even once. In stead, they've drawn zero and lost six, scoring two while also conceding 13 times.
Celta Vigo need the support of their home crowd at Abanca Balaidos after suffering defeat twice in recent matches. We fancy them to rise to the occasion and claim a win.
No side scored fewer times on home soil this season, than the zero goals Celta Vigo so far pulled off, while they also allowed four goals against. Deportivo Alaves have been terrible at getting on the scoresheet on their travels in the La Liga. They scored a lousy zero times, handing them the worst offensive record away from home, whilst also allowing four goals against.
Celta Vigo are looking at a record of one win, one draw and four defeats in the La Liga this season. Deportivo Alaves are yet to play a draw this season, in stead recording two wins and four defeats in the La Liga.
