Before the season started, the Vigo team played seven friendly matches. They won four, drew one, and lost two. The four wins were against Vizela, Sporting Gijon, Gil Vicente, and Luton Town. The draw was with Benfica. The losses were against Lille and West Ham. Regarding transfers, there hasn't been much news. They've loaned out Larsen, Sanchez, Perez, and Dotor, rented Moriba and Iglesias, and bought the rights to Atlético's central defender Nunez.
Alaves
The Basques rented Sanchez and Romero and bought the rights to Stoichkov and Villalibre. They sold Lopez, Duarte, and la Fuente, and Alkain and Gorosabel left the club as free agents. Before the season started, Alavés played eight practice matches. They beat Real Sociedad, Valencia, Osasuna, and Tenerife, drew with Levante and Huesca, and lost to Hercules.
Expert Betting Tips
Visually, Celta doesn't look stronger than their opponent, and the Basques have had better results in the control matches. We think the bookmakers overestimate Celta by making Celtic such a big favorite for the upcoming game. We think it's best to bet on the visitors' double chance, and we wouldn't be surprised if the match ends in a draw, say, 1:1.
