Valencia vs Celta Vigo prediction, preview, team news and more | La Liga 2022-23

The 2022-23 edition of La Liga is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Valencia take on Celta Vigo on Saturday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.

Celta Vigo are currently in 10th place in the La Liga standings and have been plagued by inconsistency this year. The Galician outfit slumped to a 4-1 defeat against Atletico Madrid last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.

Valencia, on the other hand, are in 12th place in the league table at the moment and are yet to hit their stride this year. Los Che suffered a shock 2-1 defeat against Rayo Vallecano in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
