Celta Vigo hosts Villarreal in round 18 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Friday, January 8th at Estadio de Balaídos (Vigo)
At the start of the season, the team from Vigo showed a very weak level of football with the results of an outsider. But under the leadership of Eduardo Coudet, Celta has blossomed and began to demonstrate a high quality of the game. The Celts have moved up to the middle of the standings, and now they have a real claim to the European Cup zone (Europa League). The Argentine coach works miracles with a seemingly distressed team. There are not so many promising young players in the team, from whom one should expect progress in the near future. Only Mendes, Mina, and Beltran can be distinguished. But experienced footballers are the main striking force of the Vigo team (Iago Aspas, Nolito, Araujo, Mallo, Murillo, and Denis Suarez).

Many associate the positive dynamics in the development of Villarreal’s performance indicators with the arrival of Unai Emery on the coaching bridge. The experienced mentor was able to quickly work on optimizing the lineup and improving the interaction of players on the field. Villarreal is one of the four leaders in the tournament standings, The Yellow Submarine has already gained 29 points (the gap to the 1st place is nine points). The club successfully lured several leaders of Valencia (Parejo and Coquelin), signed Estupignan and Rulli, and loaned Kubo. With the arrival of Unai Emery on the coaching bridge, Moreno, Alcacer, Pau Torres, and Trigueros sparkled with new colors. The team’s game is based on a balance between solid defense and an efficient line of attack.
In previous head-to-head meetings between these Spanish clubs, fans have witnessed an uncompromising struggle and high scoring rates. Now the forces of the teams are approximately equal, with a slight bias towards Unai Emery's charges. The match will be tense, with mutual chances of success, a lot of dangerous attempts, and goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
