Granada welcome Celta Vigo at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes on Sunday for a match in the penultimate round of the current La Liga season.

Granada are out to avenge a disappointing loss against Celta Vigo in their most recent meeting. According to the bookmakers, the home side could be in for another tough ride, though as it looks like an fairly unequal pairing at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes.

Granada scored nine times in the last ten outings for an average of 0.9 goals a game. They conceded 16 and managed two clean sheets.

Celta Vigo are currently decent goalscorers, as they managed a bearable 13 goals in the past ten outings for an average of 1.3 goals a game. Their opponents scored a total of 15 goals, and while Celta Vigo claimed two clean sheets, they conceded an average of 1.5 goals per match.

The last time the pair played each other Celta Vigo came away as 1-0 winners, and rest assured they have a similar outcome in mind on Sunday.

Granada vs Celta Vigo Prediction

Granada Form

In their last three matches, Granada lost 3-0 against Sevilla, 0-4 against Real Madrid and 2-1 against Rayo Vallecano. Granada managed to win two of their past six home matches in the La Liga. In the remaining four, they drew one and lost three, as they scored eight and conceded nine goals.

Many people had Granada down as candidates for the drop before the season, but rescue is still within reach, as the season nears its end.

Celta Vigo Form

Their past three matches saw Celta Vigo beating Villarreal 3-2, losing 1-0 against Atletico Madrid, and beating Athletic Club by 2-1. Celta Vigo only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the La Liga. In these six matches they drew one and lost four as well as being outscored by 13 goals to five.

They went into the season as candidates for the drop, and unfortunately for Celta Vigo, they have lived up to expectations. As the season draws to a close, they are still in with a chance of escaping relegation, though.

We trust neither defence to be able to keep their opponent at bay, when Granada welcome Celta Vigo this coming Sunday. Goals should be flowing at both ends of the pitch.

Granada won nine points from their last nine encounters with teams from the bottom six, like their upcoming opponent. They won two, scored ten and let in 11 goals. Celta Vigo claimed four wins from 14 goals scored and ten conceded from their past nine matches against teams placed in the bottom six. This handed them 15 points to their account. Granada have a record of four wins, nine draws and 23 defeats in the La Liga this season. Celta Vigo are looking at nine wins, ten draws and 17 defeats in the La Liga.
