Celta Vigo vs Valencia Prediction

We are going with Valencia to win this one after analysing the xG from both sides in their recent matches. Valencia were facing Barcelona, a team focused on dominating possession which limited Valencia in attack. Velncia still created 1 xG and scored 1 goal from that, showcasing that Valencia are scoring the chances they are presented with.

Celta Vigo were the opposite last week. As Celta beat Alaves 2-1 they did so with just 0.8 xG which is pretty impressive but not at all sustainable.

For Valencia to win we have odds of 13/5 from Coral with potential returns of £36 from a £10 bet.
