La Liga Betting Preview: Villarreal vs Celta Vigo

Third-placed Villarreal host seventh-placed Celta Vigo at Estadio de la Ceramica, with kick-off set for 15:00 on Sunday 26 April.

It stands to reason that Villarreal and Celta Vigo can both find the net and that leads us to a BTTS Yes wager. The fact that you can secure -149 for this outcome means a nice return if the bet lands.

Villarreal played out a 1-1 draw when last in action. This was on the road at Estadio Carlos Tartiere against Real Oviedo. Marcelino Garcia's side recorded three shots on target and had 42% possession, while Nicolas Pepe registered the goal.

Celta Vigo have lost back-to-back La Liga games. On their travels, they recently suffered a 1-0 defeat against Barcelona at Camp Nou. The Galicia outfit had just 39% possession and didn’t record a single shot on goal.

Head-to-Head Statistics

The last encounter between the teams saw Villarreal draw 1-1 away to Celta at Estadio Balaídos. Villarreal have won four of the previous 10 H2H meetings, with Celta getting three victories along with three draws.
