- Competition: La Liga
- Date: Saturday, 1st March, 2025
- Kickoff: 13:00 UK / 14:00 CET
- Venue: Estadio Municipal de Montilivi (Girona)
After a fantastic last season when they secured the Champions League and went toe-to-toe with the best teams in Spain, Girona returned to reality this year. They are sitting in 13th place with 31 points in 25 rounds and were easily eliminated from the CL with only three points in eight matches. Still, European spots are only four points away, and the Catalan team will definitely try to move upwards. However, we cannot say that will be an easy task after losing three in a row and five out of six.
Celta Vigo are playing their 13th consecutive season in La Liga, where they were mostly in the mid or lower part of the league's table. This year, "Los Celestes" are doing an OK job, considering they sit in 10th place with 32 points - only three points away from the European spots. In the upcoming six games, they will have a pretty easy schedule, and this period could decide the outcome of the entire season. After the Girona match, they will face off against Leganes (16th), Real Valladolid (20th), Las Palmas (17th), and Espanyol (15th).
Girona vs Celta Vigo pick: Celta Vigo to win or draw
Girona are in terrible form, having lost three in a row with an atrocious 1:7 goal difference. If we look further back, we can see they have been struggling for some time now, losing seven out of the last eight games in all competitions and five out of six in La Liga.
Meanwhile, Celta Vigo are doing an OK job. They won two and drew one in the last three games. To be fair, Celta have been far from impressive in recent road games. However, a game against out-of-form Girona is a perfect opportunity to change that.
In the previous h2h game, we saw a 1:1 draw in a really close match. Considering all the above, we believe that Celta Vigo will secure at least one point away from home at Estadio Municipal de Montilivi.
