Odds: Sevilla (1/2) Draw (10/3) Vigo (5/1) Gamingtips Prediction – Sevilla 3:0 Celta Vigo
They scored 58 goals in 38 games and conceded 54. Celta Vigo finished just one point above the relegation zone in 17th place. They scored 37 goals in 38 games and conceded 52. Sevilla were unbeaten in 6 until they met Real Madrid last time out and lost 7:3. They will be aiming to bounce back against a Vigo side who scored less than one goal per game on average last season. Celta Vigo have lost 5 of their last 6 games in all competitions and if they are to get anything from this game, they will need to stop an offensive side that has scored 20 goals in their opening 11 games. Although Celta Vigo have an overall better record against Sevilla, they have lost 4 of the last 5 meetings against Sevilla in recent times.
