Celta Vigo vs Girona – Prediction, and Match Preview
Celta Vigo vs Girona – After losing to Athletic Bilbao by a score of 2-1 in their previous La Liga match, Celta Vigo will be looking to avenge that defeat here.
Celta Vigo had 52% of the game’s possession and 8 shots on goal, with 3 of those being on goal. Jorgen Strand Larsen was the lone scorer for Celta Vigo (50′).
Ten of Athletic Bilbao’s shots were on target, and three of them were successful in finding the back of the net. The goals for Athletic Bilbao came from Lex Berenguer (in the 54th minute) and Inaki Williams (5th minute).
Celta Vigo’s offensive has recently been incredibly inefficient. Their opponents have only scored four goals against them in their last six games, according to their ‘goals for’ statistic.
Additionally, Celta Vigo has had 10 goals scored against them in those encounters. Celta Vigo hasn’t suffered a league defeat to Girona FC in their previous two games entering this one.
Girona FC and their visiting supporters will be hoping for a better outcome after a losing effort in their most recent La Liga contest against Villarreal.
Girona FC had 45% of the possession in that game and 3 of their 9 shots on goal were on target. David López (24′) was the lone player to score for Girona FC.
Villarreal had 10 shots on goal, but only five of them were on target. Yeremy Pino (9′) and Gerard Moreno (90′) were the Villarreal players that were able to find the back of the net.
The numbers don’t lie, as Girona FC has allowed goals in 5 of their last 6 games while having 8 goals scored against them overall. Girona FC has obviously had some issues defensively. However, this match won’t necessarily follow that pattern.
Based on their prior performance, Girona FC has lost against Celta Vigo in each of their last three league games.
In their last two road league games, they are undefeated.
