Sevilla vs Celta Vigo prediction: SPAIN: LaLiga betting tips on match 2026-01-11 20:00.

[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]It’s now three defeats in a row in all competitions for Sevilla, who have been knocked out of the Copa del Rey and inched closer to the bottom three in La Liga as a consequence. Perhaps the most alarming aspect of those defeats is that they all came without reply, including last weekend’s damaging 3-0 home reversal against a Levante side who were bottom of the table at the time. Seven successive La Liga home games alternating between a defeat and a win hint at a response being found here, but an abject record this season against sides starting this round above them in the table (W1, D1, L7) suggests another disappointment is far more likely. [/p]
[p]Celta’s first game of 2026 was far more enjoyable, as they thrashed Valencia 4-1 on home soil. Collecting ten points from the last 12 available to them has greatly helped the Sky Blues’ European ambitions, and they start this round just two points shy of the top six. With the resumption of their UEFA Europa League campaign on the horizon, Celta will be keen to post points quickly before their schedule becomes hectic once more, but this fixture seemingly hinders those ambitions as Celta have won just one of their last 12 Monday-held La Liga matches (D8, L3). Recent away outings have been far more fruitful though, with Celta winning seven of their last ten competitive road trips (D1, L2). [/p]
