Almeria vs Celta Vigo Prediction and Betting Tips | October 29th 2022
Almeria will entertain Celta Vigo at Estadio Mediterráneo in La Liga action on Saturday.
The hosts failed to build on their 3-2 home win against Girona last Thursday and fell to a 2-1 away loss to Villarreal last Sunday. Gonzalo Melero gave Almeria an early lead against Villarreal but the Valencian team scored twice in the second half to secure a late win.
Villarreal had two players sent off in the second half but did not let that numerical disadvantage hold them back. Nicolas Jackson scored the winning goal right at the death to condemn Almeria to their seventh loss of the season.
Celta Vigo are winless in their last four games in La Liga but were able to contain their losing run to three games as they played out a 1-1 draw at home against Getafe on Monday. Centre-back Joseph Aidoo scored the equalizing goal in the 89th minute to cancel out Eres Unal's first-half goal.

Os Celestes are winless in their last four games but have scored at least a goal in three of these games, so they just might be able to score a goal here. They have lost four of their five away games this term, so a win seems unlikely for them.
Given the recent history between the two sides, a low-scoring draw might ensue here.
Prediction: Almeria 1-1 Celta Vigo
