Villareal has had 5 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat in 7 games this season and if it wins this game, it will reach, again, the top of the table. Celta’s performances have also been impressive, especially when considering the fact that, together with Real, they are the only undefeated teams so far this season.
Villareal has managed 3 wins in its 3 so far home games and will be playing against Dinamo Minsk on Thursday for the Europa League competition. It is interesting to note that Villareal has beaten Celta with 4-1 at home and with 1-3 away from home in the 2 games between the 2 teams last season.
If Celta doesn’t lose this game and the forthcoming one against Real Madrid at home, it will reach an undefeated run for 14 games, a record that hasn’t been broken since 2001.
Prediction
Considering the above, the safest option is for each team to score at least 1 goal in this game;
goal/goal, odd: 1.72 @ BET365
