----------------------------------
Celta Vigo aims for their first victory of the season as they host unbeaten Real Betis at Balaidos in a rescheduled La Liga match, with Betis eager to keep their strong start going.
Team Analysis:
Last season, Claudio Giraldez led Celta Vigo to a seventh-place finish and Europa League qualification, but balancing European and domestic competitions poses a new challenge after a slow start this season with a loss and a draw. Despite this, Celta has a strong home record against Real Betis, who also compete in the Europa League and aim for a top-four La Liga finish under Manuel Pellegrini. Betis began the season with a draw and a win and seek their first away victory at Celta since 2021 while hoping to improve their away defensive record.
Player Situation:
Celta Vigo will miss defender Carl Starfelt due to a hamstring injury and may have uncertainty over forward Hugo Alvarez’s availability, while manager Giraldez is likely to rotate players to refresh the squad. Real Betis faces several absences, including key playmaker Isco and multiple injured players, with possible lineup changes involving Ricardo Rodriguez, Pablo Garcia, and Cedric Bakambu for the upcoming match.
Result Prediction:
Despite Celta’s recent home wins over Betis, their slow start to the season suggests the upcoming match will likely end in a draw against a Betis team that has started strongly with four points from two games.
Predicted Result: Celta Vigo 1-1 Real Betis.
