Bitesize Prediction: Celta Vigo vs Leganes – 08/03/25

Competition: La Liga

Market: Celta Vigo win

Odds: 4/7 @ 1xBet

Desperate to make up some ground in the European chase, Celta Vigo will welcome Leganes to Balaidos on Saturday lunchtime.

Starting with the hosts, eventually forced to settle for a 2-2 stalemate away at Girona last weekend, Celta Vigo will be seeking an immediate response here. Signing off February with a 1-0 victory against Osasuna, Claudo Giraldez’s side have their sights firmly set on mounting a late European charge, Los Celestes have suffered just a single La Liga defeat from any of their previous six appearances. Springing an upset last month as they collected an action-packed 3-2 win against Real Betis, the Galicia-based outfit have also gained a reputation for their extended success on home soil. Heading into Spain’s festive break with a 2-0 victory against Real Sociedad, Celta Vigo have collected 12 points from their last five La Liga showdowns at Balaidos. Knowing that they can move within touching distance of the European spots this weekend, it should also be noted that the Sky Blues have suffered just a single defeat in front of their own supporters since way back on October 19th.

As for the visitors, clinging what was a much-needed 1-0 victory at home against Getafe last weekend, Leganes will be desperate to use that performance as a platform to build on. However, opening Saturday’s showdown holding just a three-point buffer from slipping into the relegation zone, Borja Jimenez’s men have failed to find any kind of fluidity over the past six weeks. Signing off February with a 3-0 drumming at the hands of Real Sociedad, the Madrid-based outfit have recorded just a single win from any of their previous seven appearances across all competitions. Watching their Copa del Rey adventure come to an end on February 5th following an action-packed 3-2 defeat against Real Madrid, Leganes have also shown some recent issues on the road. Including a 2-0 victory against Valencia, Jimenez’s camp have failed to muster a single La Liga win away from the Estadio Municipal Butarque since the middle of December.
