Celta de Vigo Spanish La Liga Odds

For most of their history, Celta Vigo have struggled to stay afloat in the top flight of Spanish football. The club has spent about half of its history in La Liga, but they have never been able to finish higher in the table than fourth. That fourth-place finish did lead to them making the Champions League back in 2003-04 though, where they were eliminated by Arsenal in the Round of 16.

The Galician club has been playing better in recent years though. This season marks their seventh straight in La Liga, and they have qualified for the Europa League a handful of times. Back in 2016-17, Celta Vigo was able to make it to the Europa League Semifinals before losing to eventual champions Manchester United.

Fans of Celta Vigo have to be delighted with where the club is now. About 10 years ago, the club was facing liquidation due to its debt, but they have been able to erase that and become competitive once more.

2018-19 Celta de Vigo Betting Schedule

Celta Vigo can say they were a bit unfortunate to finish 13th in the table. The club finished with a -1 goal differential, behind four other clubs that had a worse goal differential. Real Betis finished in sixth place with a -1 goal differential, highlighting that it was a weird year in Spanish soccer.

Scoring wasn’t a problem for Celta Vigo. The club finished with 59 goals, the sixth-most in the league. Iago Aspas and Maxi Gomez provided the vast majority of the firepower, with Aspas scoring 22 times and Gomez netting 17 goals. Aspas looks set to play for all of this campaign, while Gomez might move to another club before the season starts.

The big problem for Celta Vigo last year was the defense, but they decided to double down on offense in the transfer window. The club has brought on center forwards Borja Iglesias and John Guidetti from domestic rivals, and center midfielder Daniel Wass too. If they can gel well, this is going to be an offense teams have a hard time stopping.
