Espanyol vs Celta Prediction: The guests have a better chance to win

One of the matches of the 26th round of the championship of France will be the duel between Espanyol and Celta. Bookmakers have not identified a clear favorite in the pair, but still believe that the guests have a better chance to win than their opponent.

After beating Elche and Mallorca, Espanyol lost twice to Valladolid and Real Madrid. The Catalans are in 15th place in the Spanish championship table with 27 points, only one point ahead of Getafe in the relegation zone. Espanyol's home statistics are 19th in the league, +3=4-5, 16:20 goal difference. The TO (2.5) has been reached four times in the last five matches involving the Parrots.

After the minimum defeat from Atletico 0:1, Celta played four matches in the national championship, two of which they won against Valladolid and Rayo, both on the home field and with the same score of 3:0. Two more matches against Osasuna and Real Sociedad ended in a draw. Those are not bad results for a mid-tier team in the championship. After 25 rounds, Celta is in 11th position and five points ahead of the team from the relegation zone. Their away statistics are 11th in the division, +3=3-6, 10:20 goal difference.

Espanyol is extremely unstable this season. The Catalans have one of the worst home statistics. In turn, Celta did not lose in the last four matches and did not concede in the previous three. We believe the Galicians have an excellent opportunity to extend their series without losses. We will not be surprised if Celta even brings the full three points from Catalonia. As for the total, we bet on a productive match and the end of Celta's dry streak.
