Celta Vigo vs Juventus brings the Europa League's in-form side to Estadio Abanca-Balaídos on Thursday night, and this fixture leans firmly towards the visitors.
Celta sit 27th in the Europa League table after losing their opener to Omonia Nicosia, and they need a statement result in front of their own fans to get the campaign moving.
Juventus top both the table and the form rankings, arriving on an unbeaten run in all competitions and carrying far more firepower than their hosts.
Previous meetings are dead level, with each side winning once. Juventus are 5/4 (AK Bets) to edge ahead in the Celta Vigo vs Juventus betting odds.
Celta Vigo vs Juventus Form
Celta's European campaign opened with a narrow defeat to Omonia Nicosia, but they've tightened up since, going unbeaten without conceding. Sunday's goalless draw at Elche in La Liga showed that stubborn edge. They're tidy on the ball too, with 92% passing accuracy in that European opener, and Borja Iglesias is set to lead the line.
Juventus are unbeaten in all competitions since opening their European campaign with a 5-0 hammering, a night when they converted 45.5% of their shots. They've since beaten Atalanta and drawn at Cagliari in Serie A, and with Nick Woltemade due back to lead the line, the attack looks sharp.

Celta Vigo vs Juventus Prediction & Best Bets
Our prediction: Celta Vigo 1-2 Juventus. The hosts are stubborn and tidy in possession, but Juventus carry more quality in the final third and arrive with momentum, so our Celta Vigo vs Juventus prediction sides with the visitors in a game with goals at both ends.
Best Bets
Juventus to win in the Win Market, backing the table-topping visitors against a Celta side sitting 27th in the league phase. Our numbers give Juventus around a 49% win probability, close to double Celta's. They rank first for both standings and form, and that gap in quality is the cornerstone of our Celta Vigo vs Juventus best bets.
Over 2.5 goals in the Total Goals Over/Under market, with both sides expected to contribute to an open game. We project 2.66 total goals here, which sits above the line, and both sides find the net in our scoreline. Celta's passing game should give them enough of the ball to chip in, while Juventus bring the bigger punch.
Celta Vigo vs Juventus Bet Builder
Our Celta Vigo vs Juventus bet builder tips combine a Juventus win, Randal Muani to score anytime, no to both teams to score and Abdoulaye Faye to be shown a card.
Juventus to win is the strongest leg, with our numbers making them favourites at 49% against a Celta side that lost their European opener.
Randal Muani to score anytime adds the punch. We put his scoring probability at 25.9%, and an anytime goalscorer leg gives this builder its real kick.
No to both teams to score is the bolder call, backing a Juventus clean sheet. Celta failed to score against Omonia Nicosia and at Elche, so a shutout is far from fanciful.
Abdoulaye Faye to be shown a card rounds it off. We rate that at just under 36%, and a fixture with this much riding on it for the hosts could get messy.
At the time of writing, this bet builder pays a best price of 20/1 and is as short as 17/1 elsewhere.

Celta Vigo vs Juventus Talking Points
There has been plenty of talk about rotation, with the squad insisted to have quality beyond the regular starters, and with a long absentee list every bit of that depth will be needed. There has also been a warning against any lapse in concentration, with praise for Celta's experience and their structure at both ends of the pitch. Winger Francisco Conceição says he feels the full trust of the club and that winning remains the imperative. Our view is simple: Celta's tidy passing will keep them in it for spells, but Juventus have more quality where it matters.
