A UEFA Europa League encounter takes place at Estadio Abanca Balaídos on Thursday evening as Celta Vigo hosts Nice.
Both teams come into this fixture in decent form, and a competitive and entertaining evening could be on the cards in Northern Spain.
Set for their first-ever encounter, recent form suggests we can expect plenty of goalmouth action this week.
Celta Vigo team overview
Celta Vigo come into Thursday's Europa League encounter after being held to another 1:1 draw last weekend. Despite being reduced to ten men, Claudio Giráldez's side held out for a point at Estadio Abanca Balaídos.
Remarkably, the La Liga side have been held to stalemates in seven of their last ten matches. All seven games finished with the same 1:1 scoreline while all ten games finished with both teams on the scoresheet.
An inability to turn those draws into victories has seen the hosts fail to win all but one of 11 games played this season. BTTS occurred in ten of those games.
Head coach Giráldez has no injury issues this week. Carl Starfelt is available despite his red card against Real Sociedad last weekend.

Nice team overview
Nice make the trip to Spain with confidence raised following a thrilling 3:2 win against Lyon. Sofiane Diop was on the scoresheet as Franck Haise's side secured a third Ligue 1 victory of the season.
Like Celta, defensive deficiencies have ensured the visitors reliability as a BTTS pick. Nice have seen both teams to score in all but one of their last nine matches. The Ligue 1 side have kept just one clean sheet this season.
Head coach Haise is unable to call on four first-team players this week. Mohamed Abdelmonem, Youssouf Ndayishimiye, Terem Moffi and Moïse Bombito are expected to miss out for the visitors.

Prediction
Considering both teams recent numbers, we can be confident of plenty of goalmouth action this week.
BTTS is my best bet, with a share of the spoils also fancied in Spain.
Three Reasons Why We Expect BTTS
- Celta Vigo have seen BTTS in their last 10 matches
- Celta Vigo have seen BTTS in their last 6 matches
- Nice have seen BTTS in 8 of their last 9 matches
