Celta Vigo vs Sevilla: predictions and betting tips on the La Liga match on December 30, 2022
On December 30, Balaídos (Vigo) will host the match of the 15th round of the La Liga, in which Celta will compete with Sevilla. The battle will start at 19:15 CET.
Celta
The club has been fighting for survival more than regularly in recent years. It seemed that the game was relatively set up well under the rule of Eduardo Coudet – he had been doing his best for almost 2 years, since November 2020. The Argentine seemed to have a success at the beginning of a new temporade in the games with Girona, Cadiz and Betis. But then only 1 point was taken in 5 matches – and that became fatal for the Latin American specialist. He was replaced by Carlos Carvalhal. The Portuguese coach debuted with a 1-2 score in a home match with Osasuna, but then with Rayo Vallecano in Madrid they had a 0-0 draw. After that the team won twice, however, opponents in the Cup were really weak. There is a strong necessity to add in the game, especially if we take into account the fact that there have been several weeks to correct the mistakes – have the Portuguese specialist and his headquarters used this opportunity?
Sevilla
The team has become the main disappointment of Spanish football in this season. To say the truth, everything went wrong in the 2nd part of the previous tournament. That season in La Liga the team managed to finish in the 4th place, and, as a result, Lopetegui continued to be a coach... But that was only for being fired in the first part of autumn, after the completely failed beginning of the new temporade. The new coach seemed to be promising: the club management chose Sampaoli, who had been successful at Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán. But so far, even with this coach, “White Andalusia” has met the winter with 2 wins and 11 points after 14 La Liga matches. It is clear that the grand is in the 18th relegating position. However, during the pause, there were pretty good results in friendly matches and on the way to the cup the team took a confident 3-0 in the game with Juventud Torremolinos.
The statistics of head-to-head matches
Sevilla had 3 wins in a row. But in January, Celta was able to take a point in an away match; moreover, the hosts came back from a 0-2 score.
Predictions
Bookmakers think that Celta has good chances for the success in the future home match. But Sevilla needs points more than air – we bet that the guests will not lose in this battle (odds: 1.61).
