Espanyol vs Celta Vigo Prediction and Betting Tips - 10th April 2022
Celta Vigo will be looking to end their three-game winless run when they visit the RCDE Stadium to face Espanyol on Sunday.
The hosts, on the other hand, saw their three-match unbeaten run come to an end last time out and will be looking to quickly put that result behind them.
Espanyol were sent crashing back down to earth in La Liga as they fell to a slender 1-0 loss against Real Sociedad last Monday.
Prior to that, they were on a three-game unbeaten run, picking up seven points from a possible nine.
With 36 points from 30 games, Espanyol are currently 12th in the La Liga standings, only below Sunday’s hosts on goal difference.
Meanwhile, Celta Vigo failed to return to winning ways last time out as they suffered a 2-1 home defeat against Real Madrid.
They have now failed to taste victory in three consecutive games, their longest winless run since going four games without a win last November.
However, they will fancy their chances of coming away with the desired result as they face an opposing side who they are unbeaten against in their last six meetings since 2017.
