Mestalla Grudge Match: Back Celta Vigo at 3.20 to Punish Valencia Again

Sat, 22 Aug, 19:30 · Estadio de Mestalla

Tip lostFinal score: Valencia 0–0 Celta Vigo

La Liga Round 2 and Valencia welcome Celta Vigo to Mestalla carrying some serious baggage. Los Che went into pre-season with two wins, a draw and two losses across five friendlies, conceding in four of those five games and keeping just one clean sheet.

The head-to-head numbers are brutal for the home side. Valencia have won only 1 of the last 5 league meetings against Celta, losing 3, and have conceded 13 goals in those 5 games while scoring just 8. Every single one of those 5 fixtures ended with both teams scoring. Celta arrive unbeaten in pre-season, 2 wins and 3 draws, scoring in all 5 games and hitting 10 goals in total. Injuries to Manuel Fernandez and Pablo Duran are a minor concern for the visitors, but the squad depth looks solid.

Both teams scored in all 5 of the last 5 La Liga meetings between these sides.Head-to-head - last five

Celta at 3.15-3.20 is the play. The visitors own this fixture in recent history, Valencia's defence leaks, and the Galicians arrive with confidence and goals in their legs. Bigger price, bigger nerve, bigger reward.
