Team News

Sevilla
Celta Vigo
  • Dodi Lukebakio scored against Almeria on Monday evening as he returned to the Sevilla side. He has scored a respectable three goals in 13 appearances for the club this season.
  • Juanlu Sanchez is out with a hamstring injury. Veteran Jesus Navas will likely play at right-back against Celta as a result.
  • Isaac Romero earned two assists in the Almeria match. He should lead the line with Youssef En Nesyri.
  • Unai Nunez and Carl Starfelt look to be the preferred pairing at centre-back for Celta now, despite their recent 4-0 loss to Real Madrid.
  • Claudio Giraldez will take charge of the first team after managing Celta B for two years. Rafa Benitez was sacked on Tuesday morning as the club battle for a solution to relegation.
  • Giraldez's presence could encourage the game time of the club's youngsters in the coming weeks.

Prediction

  • Sevilla host Celta Vigo this weekend in La Liga, six days after failing to beat bottom side Almeria in a 2-2 draw. Celta themselves have come through a disappointing week, for players and fans alike after Rafa Benitez was sacked on Tuesday after the club suffered a 4-0 loss against Real Madrid.
  • The reverse fixture between these two ended 1-1 back in November, a match where centre-back Carl Starfelt scored and was player of the match in that outing. He will be hoping to keep Carlos Dominguez out of the team and earn Claudio Giraldez's favour. Celta could move five points safe with a victory away from home. Sevilla, four points ahead, could go nine points safe of the dropzone with a win.
  • This relegation six-pointer leaves both sides with much to lose. Expect a very tight game.
