Celta Vigo vs Alaves Predictions
Both of these sides are in dire form. Alaves have shown some good signs and have enough to leave Vigo with a draw. I’m backing a low-scoring match with a 0-0 draw quite possible.

Having finished 13th last season, Celta are 18th in La Liga after six matches under Rafa Benitez.

Rafa Benitez is without left winger Franco Cervi due to injury. The coach is set to continue with a 5-3-2 formation.
Anastasios Douvikas is set to remain on the bench despite netting against Barcelona. Iago Aspas and Jorgen Strand Larsen will lead the line.
Celta Vigo Predicted Lineup
Villar; Mingueza, Nunez, Starfelt, Dominguez, Ristic; Bamba, Beltran, De La Torre; Aspas, Larsen.
Alaves Form & Team News
Deportivo Alaves since 14th in the La Liga table after their promotion to the Segunda Division. They have two wins and four losses this season so far.
A famous 4-3 home win over Sevilla in Round 2 preceded a 1-0 defeat a Getafe. A 1-0 home win over Valencia came next despite just 39% possession as they missed all three of their ‘big chances’.
They’ve lost their last two matches by 2-0 scorelines, firstly allowing 20 shots in defeat at Rayo Vallecano. On Friday, they missed four ‘big chances’ in a loss at home to Athletic Bilbao.
Young striker Giuliano Simeone is absent with a long-term ankle injury. Coach Luis Garcia make be tempted to start Spain under 21 striker Samu Omorodion.
Captain Ruben Duarte is a slight doubt at left back. Javi Lopez is on standby to deputise.
Alaves Predicted Lineup
Sivera; Gorosabel, Abqar, Sedlar, Duarte; Guridi, Guevara; Sola, Hagi, Rioja; Omorodion.
Verdict
I'm backing this match to have very few goals, Under 1.5 is my top tip. I think a draw is on the cards and a 0-0 scoreline looks like excellent value.
