FC Barcelona vs Celta Vigo prediction 19.04.2025 | La Liga

• Competition: La Liga
• Date: 19th April, 2025
• Kickoff: 15:15 UK / 16:15 CEST
• Venue: Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys

Barcelona are in a leading position to win the La Liga title, but they must not allow themselves many more slip-ups in the remainder of the season. On Saturday, they host Celta Vigo at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys, who themselves are fighting for a place in the UEFA Conference League.

Barca were brought back down to earth in midweek when they lost 3-1 to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League quarter-final second leg. Despite the defeat, they progressed to the semi-finals after winning the first leg 4-0 at home.

Celta Vigo, on the other hand, did not have a European game during the week and were able to concentrate fully on the game at the weekend. However, they suffered a 2-0 defeat to Espanyol last weekend, which ended their impressive run of eight unbeaten games prior to this fixture.

Barcelona - Celta Vigo Betting Tips: Over 2.5 Goals Total

Barcelona will undoubtedly go into this game as absolute favourites, having won six of their last seven home games in La Liga at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys. An average of 2.73 goals have been scored at home this season and 67% of Barcelona’s home games have seen more than 2.5 goals scored in total. This means that two out of every three games Barcelona have played at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys have seen more than 2.5 goals scored. In addition, both teams have scored more than 2.5 goals in their last four matches, which is why we expect at least three goals to be scored in this game as well.
