Sevilla were involved in a seven-goal thriller with Atletico Madrid at the Wanda Metropolitano on Sunday; In fact, the visitors led 3-1 in the second half of the competition, but conceded three goals in the final 30 minutes and suffered a 3-4 defeat.

The defeat was the team’s seventh in the league this season and leaves them 13th in the table with 19 points, two points behind their opponents at Estadio Ramon on Saturday evening.

Sevilla finished 14th in the last La Liga season, which was their worst season in the top flight since relegation at the end of the 1999-2000 season. So there is plenty of room for improvement in the 2024-25 season.

Garcia PimientaThe Barcelona team has picked up 13 points in eight league home games this season, winning four times. This season they also host a team from Celta who only have one away win in the league.

Sevilla have not beaten Celta in La Liga since October 2021 and the Sky Blues won 2-1 at the Estadio Ramon last season, but four of their last five meetings in the top flight have ended in complete trouble.

Celta go into this game on the back of a 2-0 home win over Mallorca in La Liga, with that result following a 7-0 win over Salamanca UDS in the Copa del Rey earlier this month.

Claudio GiraldezThe Barcelona side have a record of six wins, three draws and seven defeats in their 16 league games this season and are 10th in the table with 21 points, just five points behind fifth-placed Villarreal.

Celta have been a good watcher in La Liga this season, scoring 25 goals but also conceding 27 goals and their defensive record is actually the third worst in the league behind Real Valladolid (34) and Espanyol (28).

The Sky Blues finished 13th in La Liga last season but have shown enough this season that they can break into the top half, which was last the case in 2020/21 when the team finished eighth.

Celta are unbeaten at La Liga’s Estadio Ramon since November 2020 and as mentioned above, they recorded a 2-1 win in the corresponding game of the 2023/24 season.

Team news

Sevilla will be without four players on Saturday due to injuries Adria Pedrosa, Albert Sambi Lokonga, Tanguy Nianzou And Chidera Ejuke not available for selection.

However, the hosts did not have any new problems against Atlético, and it could be the same team that entered the pitch at the first whistle Peque Fernandez will keep its place in the top three.

Juanlu Sanchez was on the scoresheet from a midfield position in Madrid and the Spaniard is expected to remain in the team Isaac Romero will once again lead Garcia Pimienta’s team.

As for Celta, Fer Lopez, Javi Manquillo And Jail are definitely out of the game due to injury Damian Rodríguez, Sergio Carreira And Joseph Aidoo should also be missing.

Iago Aspas played on the bench against Mallorca before being used in the second period, and the experienced attacker is expected to return to the starting line-up here in place of the injured Fer Lopez.

Borja Iglesias should continue through the middle for the Sky Blues Williot Swedberg will probably start too, but Luca de la Torre will have Giraldez in mind when it comes to possible changes for this game.

Sevilla possible starting lineup:
A Fernandez; Carmona, Bade, Gudelj, Salas; J Sanchez, Agoume, Sow; Lukebakio, Romero, P Fernandez

Celta Vigo possible starting lineup:
Guaita; J Rodriguez, Starfelt, Alonso; Mingueza, Beltran, Moriba, Alvarez; Aspas, Iglesias, Swedberg


SM words green background

We say: Sevilla – Celta Vigo 1:1

Four of the last five La Liga games between these two teams have ended in draws and we expect another stalemate here; Sevilla have dropped points in half of their eight home league games this season and Celta are certainly good enough to avoid defeat at the Estadio Ramon.
