Barcelona

In general, the Catalans' winning streak has increased to five matches, and the only draw of the season happened in the first round of La Liga 2023/24 in the match against Getafe. Before the sixth round, Barcelona was second in the Spanish league standings, two points behind the leading Real Madrid.

Celta de Vigo

They won only one match in five games in La Liga 2023/24, away to Almeria, losing three times to Osasuna, Real Madrid, and Mallorca, playing a draw with Real Sociedad in San Sebastian, which can be called a surprise, given the results of the team at the beginning of the season. After five rounds played in the championship of Spain, Celta is in 16th place and has 4 points, which is only a point more than Granada, located in the relegation zone.

Expert Betting Tips

Celta, as written above, is not impressive.
