In the last round of La Liga, Celta won again on their field against Valladolid with a score of 3:1.

Expert Betting Tips

At the start of the 2024/25 season, Celta is a power to be reckoned with. However, it should be noted that so far the Galicians have picked up points exclusively in home games, away Celta have two defeats in two meetings, although it should be recognised that Celta has scored three times against Villarreal and twice against Osasuna, which is very good. But, we should not forget that Athletic is a difficult club that plays well at home. We believe that we are expecting a rather productive encounter, in which the Basques will win at home.
