Celta unbeaten in 6 but drew 5 of 9: are Betis fragile at Balaídos?

Celta Vigo – Real Betis · Kick-off: 25 October 2026 at 18:15

By: · Published: · Updated:

Celta Vigo are unbeaten in 6, but 4 of those ended in draws; across the season they have drawn 5 of 9 and over 2.5 landed in only 33% of their games. At home they score 1.80 per game over 5 games, concede 1.20 and were the first to score in 4. Betis are 4th; they beat Real Madrid 1-0 and Osasuna 5-2 but most recently lost 2-5 at home to Barcelona. Away they concede 1.75 per game over 4 games, above the league average. For Betis, Cucho Hernández (2 of the team's 16 goals) and Junior Firpo are injured, Bernal is suspended, while Bellerín is fit. Celta are without Starfelt, Borja Iglesias, Miguel Román, Álvaro Núñez and El-Abdellaoui; manager Giráldez has called up every fit player left.

Celta Vigo haven't lost in 6 and Betis leave gaps in defence away from home, so I'm going with the double chance 1X. On goals, over 2.5 lands in 33% of Celta games and 44% of Betis games; combined, Under 2.5 looks more balanced. BTTS is possible too, since Celta scored in 80% of their home games and Betis scored in all 4 away games; a 1-1 or 2-1 would be no surprise.
