While the hosts sit 16th, just one point above the relegation zone, the Yellow Submarine’s impressive run has left them in sixth place in the table.

Entering last Friday’s league game with Elche, Celta had not won in La Liga since the start of October, with the poor run of form leaving them dangerously close to the relegation zone.

However, Carlos Carvalhal’s side managed to secure three points last time out, claiming a 1-0 victory at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero through an early goal from Iago Aspas.

That victory moved the Sky Blues onto 16 points from their 16 matches, leaving them in 16th place in the table, just one point ahead of 18th-placed Cadiz on the same number of games.

Villarreal lost to Espanyol in the Copa del Rey earlier this month, so they now only have La Liga footbal to concentrate on for the remainder of the season, which should help them in their battle to remain at this level of football.

Meanwhile, Villarreal enter the contest off the back of a morale-boosting victory over the champions Real Madrid last weekend, claiming a 2-1 home victory.

Quique Setien’s side have beaten Espanyol, Valencia and Real Madrid in their last three league matches, which has left them in sixth place in the table on 27 points, just one point behind fourth-placed Real Betis.

Villarreal are also active in the Europa Conference League and the Copa del Rey, with club facing Real Madrid in the last-16 stage of the latter on January 17.

Celta Vigo vs. Villarreal Head to head

Celta Vigo Team News

Following their performance against Elche, head coach Carvalhal is likely to name a similar starting XI, with a 5-3-2 formation featuring Aspas in the final third of the field.

Goncalo Paciencia is likely to drop out for Jorgen Strand Larsen up front, which is a substitution that occured at the interval last time out.
