Celta Vigo vs. Betis: team news and expert analysis
The Vigo club managed to reach the Europa League playoffs and finish seventh in La Liga in 2025/2026. Things are much worse now. They even lost 0-1 to modest Omonia in the Europa League last month. Then, in October, they opened the scoring at home against more experienced opponents Juventus but still went on to lose. This week, however, they defeated Celtic 2-1 away from home. In La Liga, meanwhile, they have averaged just one point per match, dropping into the bottom half of the table, although at least they have avoided defeat in the autumn. Last week, they finally secured a win against Alaves, 2-1.
The Seville side finished fifth in the spring with 60 points. That earned them a return to the Champions League, where the Spaniards opened their campaign with a 3-2 away win at Lille. They also beat Porto and Feyenoord this month. On the domestic front, they have mainly been picking up victories, including one against Real Madrid. In the latest round, however, Barcelona brought them back down to earth as they suffered a 2-5 defeat.
Giráldez's men score 1.11 goals per game and concede 0.78. The Champions League participants average 1.78 goals scored in domestic competition, while conceding fewer—1.56 per match.
