Celta Vigo vs Alaves Prediction (22.03.2026)

Celta defeated Lyon 2-0 away and continues forward in the Europa League. They have only one loss in their last nine matches across all competitions, which came hard with a 1-2 against Real Madrid. In La Liga, they have climbed to sixth place in the standings. Interestingly, most of their points and victories so far have come away from home. Five of the team's last six matches in the league ended with a goal/goal.

Just above the relegation zone is Alaves before this round, and only two points away from it. The team has not won in seven consecutive matches and despite a recent coaching change, in their last match they conceded a goal in the 90+8 minute for a 1-1 draw at home against Villarreal. Alaves also remains one of the weakest away teams, having lost 10 of their 14 visits so far, in the last 12 of which they conceded at least one goal.

Here I will try a slight surprise with X2 for the guests, who have a new coach recently – the well-known Kike Sanchez Flores. They need points in the battle for survival. Celta had a match on Thursday and has not been very consistent at home overall.
