Celta Vigo take on the visitors Real Sociedad at "Balaidos" in the starting matchday of the Spanish LaLiga of 2017/2018 season. The game will be played in Vigo on Saturday, August 19th.
Last season Celta Vigo focused all their strength on the UEFA Europa League having been knocked out on the semi-final stage. In regards to the LaLiga, the team was playing with the reserve squad there during last two months and finished only on the 13th place. However, the side's strong play allowed its former head-coach Eduardo Berizzo to promote to Sevilla while "Celticos" got a new head-coach - Juan Carlos Unzue. During the summer break Celta Vigo have signed three new performers: Maximiliano Gomez, Jozabed Sanchez and Stanislav Lobotka having spent 13 million EUR for the squad’s enforcement. The club saved all the main players who played this spring.

Real Sociedad occupied the sixth position in the LaLiga last season having gained 64 points and are getting ready for the UEFA Europa League battles. Eusebio Sacristan's side has sold Yuri Berchiche to Paris SG for 16 million EUR having signed Diego Llorente and Adnan Januzaj for six and 10 million EUR correspondingly staying at least not weaker. During the summer break Real Sociedad have conducted 10 friendly encounters resulting in three wins, four draws and three defeats.
It should be noted that it was Vigo where the team finished last season having played 2:2 a draw. Celta Vigo and Real Sociedad enter the new season with another head-to-head and I believe that the hosts will gain another three points in it.
Prediction for the match: Celta Vigo to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
