Celta vs Girona: Match Prediction for the Spanish Championship
On September 29, Celta will host Girona in the eighth round of La Liga. In their previous match at home, the Celts fell to the Girona side. What can we expect from this upcoming clash? Our experts will analyze the situation to provide the best options and optimal bets for this exciting confrontation. All insights will be covered in this prediction.
Command Analysis
Celta Vigo
SpainCurrent Form
After a promising start to the La Liga campaign, Celta Vigo's momentum has stalled, possibly due to an unfortunate last-minute loss to Atletico Madrid (0-1) on Thursday. Having won only one of their last five league matches, Coach Claudio Giraldés expressed frustration over his team's defeat, remarking that sometimes football feels unfair. Celta aims to avoid suffering three consecutive La Liga losses for the first time since May 2023.
Injuries and Suspensions
De la Torre (injury), Mingueza (muscle injury), and Ristich (shin injury) will not be available for the match.
Interesting Betting Trends
Three of the last four encounters between the teams ended with a 1-0 scoreline.
Celta's summer signing Borja Iglesias has already netted three goals this season and has scored five times in as many matches against Girona throughout his career.
Probable Lineup: Villar – Mankillo, Mingueza, Sverberg, Dominguez – Moriba, Beltrán, Jaeilson, Rodriguez – Aspas, Iglesias.
Girona
SpainCurrent Form
Girona has faced a challenging start following their stellar 2023/24 season. Their struggles continued with a lackluster draw against Rayo Vallecano on Wednesday, extending their winless streak to four official matches, a situation they did not encounter at all last year. In fact, the red-and-whites were at the top of the table at the same point last season. The Catalans have found it difficult to keep clean sheets away from home, managing just one win in their last four away matches in La Liga.
Injuries and Suspensions
Unavailable players include Justin (shoulder injury) and Artero (ankle injury).
Notable Betting Trends
Christian Stuani has scored two goals this season, both in the 80th minute or later, along with three goals in his last five encounters.
Girona defeated Celta in both matchups last season.
Projected Lineup: Juan Carlos – Martinez, Juanpe, Akobishvili, Romeru – Urena, Chayna, Almena, Solis, Missehou – Stuani

1.27Tip and bets
The tournament standings currently hold no pressure for either club, allowing them to push forward in search of scoring opportunities. Additionally, there is a chance for success against an equally matched opponent. It is likely that both teams will be on the attack from the kickoff. In three of the last six head-to-head matches, both clubs found the net, and we expect the same outcome today.
Our prediction is that both teams will score, and we recommend placing a bet on this with odds of 1.73.
Bet on the Outcome
Today both teams have good chances for victory. The home side benefits from strong fan support and a strong desire to please their supporters, while the visitors can aim for valuable tournament points, having taken six points from Vigo last season. We believe it’s worth considering a draw, which would ultimately satisfy both teams and earn them a point each.
Prediction – draw at 3.90
Bet on Red Card
Both teams may make up for their lack of skill and speed through a tactical approach that relies on fouls, leading to plenty of violations on the field. Additionally, there have been three red cards in their last three head-to-head matches.
Prediction – red card (yes). This option is available at 3.95
