Celta Vigo, Recent FormCelta Vigo will have been reasonably pleased with their 0-0 draw against Rayo Vallecano, not least because of the valuable point gained. They achieved 37% possession in that match and had 4 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Rayo Vallecano's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Rafael Benítez will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 5 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 7 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. Playing at home, they've conceded a goal in each of their last 11 games.
They've drawn their last 3 games, but their search for a win in a league game extends even further with 12 consecutive games without a win.
Granada, Recent FormGranada will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Athletic Bilbao with a 1-1 draw and a valuable point. In that game they had 38% possession and managed 1 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Athletic Bilbao who had 5 attempts and 1 on target.
Having scored 5 goals and conceded 11 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. Playing away from home, they've conceded a goal in each of their last 16 games.
The misery continues for Granada, having not won any of their last 13 games.
Bryan Zaragoza will be hoping to create problems for Celta Vigo in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Granada.
In the most recent meeting between these teams, they both managed to find the net, but the game finished in a 1-1 draw.
Granada have struggled to break down the Os Celestes defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings. Playing at home, Celta have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Granada.
Granada has a poor track record in the league when they visit Celta, losing in their last 2 games.
With only Joseph Aidoo (Cruciate ligament) and Mihailo Ristić (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Rafael Benítez will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Alexander Medina has a number of injury concerns in his Granada squad to contend with: Raúl Fernández (Muscle), Carlos Neva (Achilles tendon) and Jesús Vallejo (Hamstring)
