Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Celta Vigo and Real Betis face each other in a highly-anticipated game at Estadio de Balaidos. Os Celeste are eyeing their sixth consecutive league win, and we are positive that they will stick to their attacking style of play. A man to watch in the home team will be Santi Mina, who scored a brace in the historical 2-1 win over Barcelona at Camp Nou, while experienced attacker Iago Aspas misses the match through injury.
Los Beticos have been in a splendid form of late as well, and given their attacking potential, both teams to score betting option should be considered. The Andalusians are eyeing a place in European competitions, but they should be happy with one point from the last game of the season. All Akouokou, Montoya, Martin, and Camarasa are sidelined with injuries for the visiting team.
