Celta Vigo vs Barcelona Analysis
Celta Vigo Preview
It has been a damaging campaign to this point for the home side, with the Celta standings showing them sitting 17th after 24 rounds of matches. They are in danger of being relegated this term, with Celta currently sitting just three clear of the bottom three positions.
Their recent form shows that they have lost three of their last four, but they have recorded more victories than the three sides below them in the standings. They come into this round after suffering a defeat last weekend, which was their 12th loss of the campaign.
Celta’s biggest issues have been defensively, as they have already allowed 35 goals this season. Three further goals were allowed in their most recent defeat, losing 3-2 on the road against Getafe.
The La Liga team stats also show that they have struggled for results at home throughout this season, winning just twice in 12 league matches. Meanwhile, they have scored just eight goals in front of their own fans.
Barcelona Preview
It will be an important second half of the season for Barcelona, as they must finish in the Champions League positions to secure their long-term future. Financial issues continue to plague the Spanish giants, but their form on the field this term has been consistent enough.
The Barcelona roster come into this round after going three without a loss in the league. However, they will need to get back on track after salvaging a draw in their latest outing.
Barcelona were hugely fortunate to earn a point against Granada last weekend, with their eventual equalizing goal scored with just ten minutes remaining by Lamine Yamal.
The Spaniard has been one of the standout young players based on the La Liga player stats this term. The 16-year-old has registered three goals and two assists in 24 league outings.
