The hosts look a solid bet to see off Osasuna with something to spare on Sunday evening.
Celta Vigo v Osasuna - Sunday 17:30, Sky Sports 3
Despite leading 2-1 after 85 minutes, Celta Vigo conspired to lose 3-2 at Atletico Madrid last time out, meaning they drop down to 10th. They’ll be happy to return to Balaidos for the first time in four games after their last game here with Real Madrid was postponed. Osasuna, meanwhile, were beaten 3-1 at home by Real Madrid as they remain stranded at the bottom of the table.
After defeats in their opening two home games, Celta Vigo have since won seven of eight in front of their own fans, despite keeping only one home clean sheet all season. They’ve hosted four of the current bottom-six during that winning run, with two 2-1 victories and a 3-1 win over 19th placed Granada.
Osasuna have now managed to net in their last six, but they conceded more than twice in four of these as they continue to miss important defenders with both Flano twins and first-choice keeper Nauzet Perez injured. They’ve lost six of their 10 road games but have managed to net at Sociedad, Bilbao, Villarreal and Real and we expect them to find the net against Celta’s leaky defence. Celta Vigo to win and both teams to score looks an excellent bet at 3.45, but we’re going to make the3-1 correct score our standout selection.
