Real Sociedad vs Celta Vigo Prediction and Betting Tips (18.02.2023)

Command Analysis

Real Sociedad

Spain

Opponents are at the opposite sides of La Liga standings. Real Sociedad are trying to get a Champions League spot, while Celta are under a serious threat of relegation. Basques put an end to their three-game winless run - the Royal Club beat Espanyol (3:2) in a high-scoring encounter.

The White-Blues are gaining momentum - 42 points after 21 match is club's best result in La Liga since 2002/03 season, when team secured a 2nd place finish.

Silva, Sadiq, Pacheco, Merquelanz, Gorosabel, Elustondo and Ely will miss the upcoming game.

Celta Vigo

Spain

Celta lost the previous game to Atletico Madrid (0:1), despite a solid performance. Carlos Carvalhal seemed to be happy with team's effort, saying that «we're closer to a team I would like».

A recent away victory over Betis (4:3) proves that the Sky Blues are a threat to anyone, but team has been struggling on the road: only three teams in La Liga lost more away games than Celta. With six victories and five draws, team earned 23 points and a 14th position in the standings.

Marchesin will miss the upcoming game through achilles injury.

Visitors should be able to withstand here. Basques are not so successful at home in the current season and they might drop points once again.
