Celta vs. Girona: Match Prediction
Both teams are winless and hope to claim their first victory of the new season in this round. Based on current form and the performances of both clubs, the Galicians seem closer to victory. Although Celta hasn't won in four consecutive matches, they have lost only once. Meanwhile, Girona has lost five consecutive matches, conceding at least two goals each time.
The Galicians have suffered only 4 defeats in their last 16 home matches in La Liga (8 wins and 4 draws). In contrast, the Catalans have only beaten Mallorca and Valladolid in their last 19 Primera matches. On the road, Michel Sanchez's side has suffered 7 defeats in their last 10 league matches. I believe the hosts will secure 3 points.
My prediction – Celta to win
