Celta take on the visitors Las Palmas in the round 29 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Monday, March 31st at Estadio de Balaídos (Vigo).
Celta finally showing strong results
The Galicians have spent years battling relegation, but they always managed to collect enough points to avoid dropping into the Segunda. There have been ambitions to push higher, and in 2023, they lured Rafa Benítez back to Spain—only for his return to be a complete disaster. He was sacked midway through the season, and fortunately, Celta made a much better choice in appointing the relatively unknown Claudio Giráldez. The young coach stabilized the team last season and has made rapid progress this year. Now, Iago Aspas and company have won four recent matches, including a victory over Betis, while also drawing against Atlético Madrid and Girona. As a result, they entered the international break in eighth place, just one point behind Mallorca. With the momentum they have built, a push for European spots is starting to look like a realistic goal.

Las Palmas finally returned to La Liga in 2023, and in their first season back, they proved to be more than competitive, securing 40 points and comfortably staying in the top tier. However, much of that success was down to García Pimienta, who left for Sevilla last summer. His replacement, Luis Carrión, failed to meet expectations, and the current coach, Diego Martínez Peñas, initially performed well but saw results decline rapidly after December. In 2025, following the winter break, the team has completely lost its rhythm. They were thrashed by Elche in the Copa del Rey, and in La Liga, they have managed just three draws—two of them against fellow strugglers Valladolid and Alavés. With that poor run of form, Las Palmas has slipped back into the relegation zone, and the situation looks increasingly dire. Unless they turn things around immediately, their return to the Segunda will become inevitable.
Celta has won five of the last six meetings, including both encounters in 2024. There is no clear path for the visitors to take anything from this match, not even a draw. Expect Iago Aspas and his teammates to secure a home victory.
Prediction for the match: Celta to win.
