Celta vs Sevilla: Team News and Expert Analysis
The club from Vigo surprised last season when they suddenly climbed to seventh place. Thus, the Spaniards returned to the Europa League, where this time they only lost in the quarterfinals to the future finalist, Freiburg. This coincided with a slump in domestic competition, but afterwards they managed to win again and secure sixth place. After defeating Atletico, they took only one point from Levante and Athletic, but their rivals failed to capitalize on this.
The team from "Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan", despite some recent successes, only beat Leganes in the battle for survival by a single point a year ago. Now, after changing their coach, they also tried to avoid relegation to the Segunda. With three wins, capped by a 3-2 victory at Villarreal, they achieved this goal. So they even allowed themselves to lose to Real Madrid afterward.
Heraldes’s men understandably have a positive goal difference—1.41 goals scored and 1.3 conceded on average. The well-known footballers who were again fighting for survival managed only 1.24 goals scored and 1.59 conceded on average.
