Despite some disappointments in the league, including a recent 1-2 defeat to Rayo Vallecano, Claudio Giraldes' team has shown fighting spirit in cup matches. In the previous round of the Copa del Rey, Celta narrowly beat Racing Santander 3-2, which is evidence of the team tough play and willpower.

Away form remains the biggest problem for Celta, who are looking to end their losing streak.
