Cadiz CF vs Celta Vigo prediction: SPAIN: LaLiga betting tips on match 2023-05-27 17:00.
The fight for survival this La Liga (LL) season might come down to a photo finish as with only two games left, no one from 13th in the table looking down can consider themselves safe. Occupying the prime real estate of 17th are Cádiz, who just can’t seem to pull away as the last four games they’ve managed to secure points, they’ve then fallen to defeat immediately after.
At least that hasn’t been the case at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla recently with the Yellow Submarine sinking their last two visitors Valencia and Real Valladolid 2-1 and 2-0, respectively. Sergio González’s men will be eagerly awaiting their next target in Celta Vigo then, a fixture they may have earmarked to help protect their top-flight status having lost only once in the last 15 home league H2Hs (W9, D5).
Celta will have their own agenda though, as they sit two points above their hosts in 14th place and know a win here would secure their place in LL with a game to spare. The Sky Blues only have themselves to blame for their precarious position after winning only once in their last ten matches (D3, L6), and therefore must try to replicate the performance they handed out to Cádiz in the reverse fixture, where Celta ran out 3-0 winners.
Yet manager Carlos Carvalhal might be nervous to hit the road with the stakes so high, since their last four away outings have all ended in defeat. That spells trouble for Celta who notoriously finish the away portion of their LL campaigns poorly, after winning their last away game of a top-flight season only once in their previous nine attempts (D2, L6).
Players to watch: Cádiz top-scorer Théo Bongonda might be the man to ensure they stay out of the dropzone, with all of his last six goals coming at home. He could meet his match in Celta’s Jörgen Strand Larsen, who has netted four of his last five goals on the road.
Hot stat: Celta have only won two of their 16 LL matches this season when starting as the outsider (D5, L9).
