Celta Vigo vs Las Palmas Preview

 

Celta Vigo vs Las Palmas

Competition – Spanish Primera

Stadium – Estadio Balaídos

Date: 5th March 2018

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

Las Palmas’ draw against Barcelona has sparked life into their survival hopes and a team that once appeared to be heading for an early exit from the La Liga will be looking to get out of the relegation zone with a win here.

Celta Vigo are comfortably placed on mid table ahead of this game and they will be looking to get up to 7th and secure Europa League football by the end of the season.

They have 1 win from their last 5 league games, but they have an overall good home form.

They have lost just 1 of their last 9 games at home in all competitions despite playing host to Barcelona and Real Madrid.

They have scored in all but 15% of their league games this season and they should get at least a goal in this game also.

Iago Aspas and Maxi Gomez are the second best attacking pairing in the league after Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi and at least one of is expected to get a goal here.

Las Palmas have collected less than an average of 0.50 points per away game this season – only Malaga have a worse away record.

They wwill be without their goal scorer against Barcelona, Jonathan Calleri as he is suspended and they are still missing Jonathan Viera who left them in the last transfer window.

It will be interesting to see what Las Palmas can come up with here.
