Oviedo

The team literally miraculously avoided bankruptcy at the beginning of the last century. Having climbed up to Segunda quite quickly after such a crisis, they were already stuck there for a long time. But in the season before last, they finally tried to take a new step, but, having risen to the top 6 in 2023/2024, they lost in the final of the matches. But a year later, it was possible to win in a similar playoff.

But even with such a long journey to La Liga, it turned out that the players are not ready to play there. And the change of coach, with the return of Carreon, did not help, rather, it only got worse. In the end, after 0:4 against Sevilla in the last round, Luis Miguel was already shown the door. What is not surprising: the winless streak has reached two and a half months – it has not been possible to win since the end of September.

Celta

For a long time, the club tried to show progress, but in reality it was fighting for survival. That’s why Giraldez came in the course of the season before last to lead the players out of the crisis in which they were under Rafa Benitez. Claudio managed, and in the next temporad he jumped with his wards to seventh place!

This result helped bring Vigo back to the Europa League. There, the Spaniards won three times in a row, although now they lost to Ludogorets and Bologna. With such an additional load, it is not surprising that there was a decline in the domestic arena, albeit not critical. At the moment, after a 2-0 victory over potential rivals, Atlético, manage to go in eighth position in the current standings after sixteen rounds with 22 points.

Statistics of personal meetings

In the last four face-to-face matches, the clubs alternated victories on their fields. But it was at the turn of the century, in 1999-2001.

Forecast

Bookmakers tend to expect success from visitors from Vigo on Saturday. But after all, insurance will not hurt – we bet on Iago Aspas and company, but with a zero handicap (coefficient – 1.60).
