Valencia vs Celta Vigo Preview

Valencia welcome Celta Vigo to Estadio Mestalla, with kick-off set for 13:30 on Saturday 22 August.

Carlos Corberan's Valencia have made a handful of additions to their squad this summer, with left-winger Ryunosuke Sato, centre-back Justin de Haas and central midfielder Aliou Dieng among the new arrivals. Several players have also returned to their parent clubs following loan spells, including goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala, left-winger Largie Ramazani, centre-forward Lucas Beltran and centre-back Unai Nunez, while Cenk Ozkacar has joined Trabzonspor on a permanent deal.

Valencia finished ninth in La Liga last season with 49 points from 38 matches. They signed off with a 3-1 home victory over champions Barcelona at Estadio Mestalla. Los Che had just 24% possession but registered six shots on target, with Javier Guerra, Luis Rioja and Guido Rodriguez all finding the net.

Claudio Giraldez's Celta Vigo have been relatively quiet in terms of new arrivals, with central midfielder Aleix Febas and left-back Javi Galan joining on free transfers, while centre-back Abdoulaye Faye has arrived on loan. Centre-backs Unai Nunez and Joseph Aidoo, central midfielder Hugo Sotelo, right-back Oscar Mingueza, left-back Mihailo Ristic and left-winger Franco Cervi are among the players to have left the club.

Celta collected 54 points on their way to a sixth-place finish in La Liga last season. They rounded off the campaign with a 1-0 victory over Sevilla at Estadio Balaídos. Os Celestes enjoyed 54% possession and managed three shots on target, with Ilaix Moriba grabbing the winner early in the second half.
