Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Celta Vigo play host to Valencia at their Estadio de Balaidos on the last day of the season. Os Celeste proved their worth in back-to-back wins over Athletic Bilbao and Granada and they must be high on confidence ahead of Sunday’s clash. Pacey winger Jonathan Bamba is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring as a substitute in the last league match, while all Franco Cervi, Carles Perez, Mihailo Ristic, and Joseph Aidoo remain in the recovery room.
Los Che, on the other hand, do not seem to be at their sharpest in the season finale, with the team losing four of their last five league matches. Given Celta Vigo’s fine form in the national championship, home win should be considered. Both Jaume Domenech and Fran Perez are out of contention with injuries, while Jesus Vazquez faces race against the clock to be fit for the Celta game.
