Sevilla vs. Celta Vigo 1/22/22 LaLiga Soccer Pick, Predictions, and Odds

Sevilla is hosting Celta Vigo at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan in round 22 of the Spanish LaLiga. Sevilla is trying to catch up to Real Madrid, but as long as they can’t beat teams like Valencia, they won’t catch them. Celta has had a nice performance against Osasuna the other day, and that was another positive result for them in LaLiga.

Sevilla now has 45 points, and they are 4 points behind Real Madrid in the LaLiga standings. Defensively, Sevilla is still the best, but they are not doing enough in the attacking end. Yes, Sevilla did score 32 goals so far this season, but they haven’t scored more than 1 in their last 3 games. Now, Sevilla does have a few injuries, and Lamela and En-Nesyri are among those players, and that is the biggest problem for Sevilla. Rafa Mir is now the leading goalscorer for Sevilla with 6 goals, while Rakitic has 3 assists. The good news for Sevilla is they are the best defensive team in the league, and there are still a lot of games left for Real Madrid to slip up and for Sevilla to catch up, but they better be ready when it happens because it won’t happen twice.

I mentioned Celta’s last game, and it was good, at least in the first half. In the second half, Osasuna was pressuring, they were creating chances, but Celta defended well, and thanks to 2 scored goals in the first half Celta has won that game 2-0. Celta has now lost only 1 of their last 5 games, and they are in solid 12^th place with 26 points, but Celta can do so much better. Defensively, Celta is solid, but their offense has to produce more, and they gotta find a player who will support Aspas and Mina. Aspas is the leading goalscorer for Celta with 10 goals, while Mina added 7 goals. Aspas has also added 3 assists. Solari and Tapia are the only injured players for Celta Vigo at this time. The good news for Celta is their schedule is on the easier side, but they need to remain focused on both ends, and they need to win some points.

Sevilla hasn’t lost to Celta in their last 6 games, and this will be a tough game for Celta. Sevilla is also still undefeated at home this season, and I think it will stay that way. Celta is in good form, but Sevilla is the best defensive team in the league. I’m taking Sevilla and the under.
