Celta Vigo and Barcelona are set to face each other this week at Municipal de Balaidos in the La Liga Campaign. Kick off schedules for November 6th 2021 at 18:15 EAT.
Barca performance has been unsteady this season, they have dropped to the 9th place with 16 points after 11 league matches. In their previous game they edged Dynamo Kiev to 1-0 win in the Champions League; they head into this game expecting the same results.
Celta Vigo on the other is in the 15th place with 11 points after 12 league games. Last time out they held each other to 0-0 versus Rayo Vallecano and they will be looking for similar or improved results when they face the Catalan giant.
Four out five of the previous five head to head matches between this due ended with goals over 2.5, same results should be expected in this game.
Interim manager Sergi Barjuan made his debut with a win over Dinamo in Kiev and we expect even better results in this game. Celta Vigo’s recent struggles will need a lot of efforts to stop Barcelona and therefore we predict a hard earned win for Barcelona.
Celta Vigo vs Barcelona head to head
There have been 46 meeting between these two sides since 1993 in which Barcelona has an upper hand with 23 wins, there have been 13 draws and Celta vigo has 10 wins.
