Expert Betting Tips
Celta is doing really well at home this season, so we don't think you should bet against them when they play at home. On Sunday, the hosts are likely to at least not lose to the Basques, and it would not be a surprise if Celta end up winning at home. We don't expect a very exciting match, but three goals are a good possibility.
