Celta de Vigo come into this with a recent home loss to Levante, but their wider run still includes wins away at Atlético Madrid and at home to Elche, so there is enough in the data to suggest they can create chances. Sevilla have also been competitive, beating Villarreal away and Espanyol and Real Sociedad at home, although they were edged out by Real Madrid in their latest league outing. With no xG data available, the clearest read is that both sides have been capable of scoring, but Celta’s home advantage and the recent head-to-head edge point towards a narrow home win.
Sevilla’s away results show they can travel well, yet their last five league games also include two defeats, so consistency is not fully there. Celta’s recent results have been mixed, but they have already beaten Sevilla 1-0 away in January and 3-2 at home last season, which is a useful pattern for bettors looking at the match-up. Match Prediction: Celta de Vigo 2-1 Sevilla
Form Guide & Team Overview
Celta de Vigo
Celta de Vigo’s recent league form has been mixed, with one draw, two wins and two defeats across their last five. The standout results are the 1-0 win away at Atlético Madrid and the 3-1 home win over Elche, while the 2-3 home loss to Levante shows they have also been vulnerable at Balaídos.
Their latest result was a 1-1 draw away at Athletic Club, which suggests they are still competitive against strong opposition. Overall, the numbers point to a side that can score and stay in games, but not one that has been fully reliable from week to week.

Sevilla
Sevilla’s recent league form is also uneven, with three wins and two defeats in their last five. They have picked up useful victories away at Villarreal and at home to Espanyol and Real Sociedad, which shows they have been able to get results in different types of fixtures.
Their latest league match was a 0-1 home defeat to Real Madrid, so they arrive without a win in that game. The broader run suggests Sevilla have enough quality to compete, but their results still leave room for doubt, especially when facing a side that has already beaten them this season.

Team News & Injury Report

Sevilla
- Manu Bueno (Edema In The Knee)
Lineups & Tactical Setup
Celta de Vigo (3-4-3)
Predicted lineup: Ionuț Radu (Goalkeeper), Javi Rodríguez (Defender), Marcos Alonso (Defender), Yoel Lago (Defender), Fer López (Midfielder), Ilaix Moriba (Midfielder), Javi Rueda (Midfielder), Sergio Carreira (Midfielder), Borja Iglesias (Attacker), Ferran Jutglà (Attacker), Williot Swedberg (Attacker)
Celta de Vigo’s predicted 3-4-3 should give them width through the midfield line and enough support around the front three to press Sevilla’s back four. If Fer López and the wing-backs can get forward cleanly, Borja Iglesias should have service in central areas.
Sevilla (4-4-2)
Predicted lineup: Odysseas Vlachodimos (Goalkeeper), Andrés Castrín (Defender), Gabriel Suazo (Defender), José Ángel Carmona (Defender), Kike Salas (Defender), Djibril Sow (Midfielder), Nemanja Gudelj (Midfielder), Oso (Midfielder), Rubén Vargas (Midfielder), Akor Adams (Attacker), Neal Maupay (Attacker)
Sevilla’s predicted 4-4-2 gives them a compact shape with two forwards to stay connected on transitions and attack Celta’s back line directly. Djibril Sow and Nemanja Gudelj should be important in helping Sevilla stay balanced while feeding Akor Adams and Neal Maupay.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
| Celta de Vigo | Sevilla | Key Battle Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Celta de Vigo | Sevilla | Borja Iglesias will look to use his physical presence against Andrés Castrín and make Celta’s attacks stick in the final third. |
| Celta de Vigo | Sevilla | Fer López against Djibril Sow is a key midfield duel, with Celta needing Fer López to help them progress the ball and Sevilla relying on Djibril Sow to disrupt that rhythm. |
| Celta de Vigo | Sevilla | Borja Iglesias is key for Celta de Vigo because the recent lineups show him as the central attacking reference, which makes him important for finishing moves and holding up play. |
| Celta de Vigo | Sevilla | Akor Adams is key for Sevilla because he has been named in both recent lineups and the predicted XI, so he is central to their attacking threat. |
