Celta Vigo vs Real Betis Preview

Games played in the La Liga on Mondays are not always the most exciting however, this game might be different as  both of these teams play attractive, attacking football.

Celta and Betis are separated by just one point in a congested mid-table in the league.

Celta are currently 7^th while Betis are 11^th, and with 7^th position offering Europa League football, both of these sides will be looking to get the maximum points here.

Celta Vigo have started to put together some wins and they come into this game off the back two consecutive wins over Real Sociedad and Levante.

They have taken 10 points from their last 4 games.

However, Celta have questionable home form as they have just 3 wins from their last 14 home games.

Betis will be delighted to hear of Celta’s poor home form as they have won their last 2 away games.

They are also one of the most entertaining sides in the league this season as they are usually involved in high scoring games with scorelines 4-4, 5-3, and 3-6.

Celta’s Iago Aspas has scored less than only Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi this year and he has helped Celta with 12 league goals.

70% of Celta’s games have seen both teams score and they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 78% of their home games this season.

This game has many interesting angles and could be worth a watch on a boring Monday evening.
