Both Celta Vigo and Sevilla took part in the Copa del Rey during the international break, winning their first and second-round games. The hosts scored nine goals while conceding once and Sevilla scored five times in these games without conceding.

📋 The 2⃣1⃣-man Squad for our return to La Liga has been announced.

Os Celestes have scored at least one goal in each of their seven home games in La Liga this season and two of their three wins have also come at home. They have suffered defeats in their last two home games against their southern rivals and might struggle here.

Rojiblancos have also scored at least one goal in their travels and interestingly, they have picked up both of their wins in their away games this term. As both teams looked sharp in their Copa del Rey games last week, we expect the two teams to play out a draw.
