Celta Vigo vs Getafe prediction 04.11.2024 | La Liga

• Competition: La Liga
• Date: Monday, 4th November, 2024
• Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
• Venue: Estadio de Balaídos (Vigo)

Over the previous few seasons, Celta's results constantly declined. Last year, they finished 14th, but it was far from a good season, as they won only 41 points. This season, Los Celestes are more or less around the same level as last year, as they average just 0.1 points per match more. The primary reason why they haven't had a better season was their poor performances away from home. Because of that, Celta Vigo are under pressure to win all three points at Estadio de Balaídos against Getafe.

Getafe have been among the worst teams in La Liga in the previous seasons. Still, with their gritty, defensive style of football, they managed to survive somehow. This season, they continued to play that way and are once again just above the relegation zone. Currently, they are in 15th place, just one point above the danger zone. Still, they are on a nice four-game unbeaten mini-run, which will try to extend against Celta Vigo.

Celta Vigo vs Getafe pick: Under 2.5 goals

Celta Vigo are in pretty poor form and have especially struggled offensively. Their only good (offensive) game in the last two months was against San Pedro in the Cup. In the other six games, they have scored a total of four goals - 0.67 per game. So, we do not think they can change that against a super-defensive team like Getafe.

Meanwhile, Getafe are the perfect team for this type of bet, as 10 of 11 matches finished under 2.5 goals - 91%! Simply, they are a team that mostly relies on their defense, and that will hardly change any time soon. Also, away from home, Getafe scored only three goals in five rounds, which is the third worst in the league.

Considering all the above, an under 2.5 goals bet seems like the best option for this La Liga tie.
