Celta Vigo vs Las Palmas
Herrin Kendrick; La Liga Analyst at BettingTips4You
Real Madrid to Win and Over 2.5 Goals | |
1/1 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Real Madrid are riding high on form and firepower, with Mbappé, Vinicius and Bellingham all available. Sociedad are out of sorts on the road and struggle in Madrid. With a place in the final up for grabs, Los Blancos should win and score multiple times in an entertaining affair.

Key Stats:
- Celta have picked up 29 points from 14 home games this season.
- Las Palmas are winless in their last 10 La Liga fixtures.
- The visitors have conceded 47 goals in 28 matches, the second-worst tally in the division.
Rationale
Celta Vigo welcome relegation-threatened Las Palmas to Balaídos on Monday evening, and momentum lies firmly with the hosts. Claudio Giráldez’s men are riding a six-match unbeaten streak, including back-to-back wins over Leganés and Real Valladolid. With European qualification still within reach, the Sky Blues will see this clash as an ideal opportunity to apply pressure on the sides above them.
Their form in front of their home support has been consistent, taking 29 points from 14 matches – a record that places them among the strongest home performers in La Liga this season. Celta have also enjoyed recent dominance in this fixture, winning both of the last two meetings, including a 4-1 victory in this exact matchup last campaign.
Las Palmas, on the other hand, are winless since December and desperately lack form. A run of ten matches without a win has left them 19th in the table, and their away record is cause for concern – just 11 points earned from 14 road games. Their defence continues to unravel, with 47 goals conceded so far – the second-highest total in the division.
While Fabio Silva and Sandro Ramirez have kept the team afloat with their goalscoring efforts, there’s little support from midfield or the flanks. That over-reliance on two players, combined with a shaky defence and disjointed midfield, makes it difficult to see them matching a Celta side flying high in confidence and unity.
Celta’s attacking trio of Iago Aspas, Alfon Gonzalez and Borja Iglesias has clicked into gear at just the right moment. With the midfield work rate of Hugo Sotelo and Fran Beltrán controlling the tempo, Las Palmas could struggle to get a foothold.
Celta’s defensive stability, their fluid front line, and the context of Las Palmas’ struggles suggest a comfortable evening for the home side. The visitors’ last win in Vigo came in 2011 in the second division, and given the way both sides are trending, it’s hard to imagine that drought ending tonight.
Best bet – Celta Vigo to win and over 2.5 goals
