Celta Vigo preview: Battered in Germany
Celta Vigo head into this one on the back of being hammered 3-0 by Freiburg in the first-leg of their UEFA Europa League quarter-final in Germany the other day with goals scored by Vincenzo Grifo, Jan-Niklas Beste and Matthias Ginter.
Celta do have to be fully focused on that return leg back in Galicia this coming midweek as they begin the weekend’s round of fixtures sitting just outside of the top five and the likely UEFA Champions League spots in La Liga.
Oviedo preview: Showing fight
It has been a rally that has been too little too late for Real Oviedo as they sit rock-bottom in Spain’s top-flight but the Asturians are showing some fight and restoring some pride, that continuing last weekend.
Oviedo managed to edge past fellow strugglers Sevilla by a goal to nil at Estadio Carlos Tartiere, courtesy of a winning goal scored by in-form Uruguay international striker Fede Vinas.

Celta Vigo vs Oviedo prediction
Celta’s last two games in La Liga have been thrilling. After giving up a 3-0 lead against Deportivo Alaves and then losing 4-3 before the international break, they then entertainingly defeated Valencia by three goals to two last weekend. The hosts have begun to concede and may be distracted here so, while still firm favourites, Oviedo will surely fancy themselves to rattle their cage once again.
