155%(1.84)
X27%(3.40)
218%(4.74)

Celta de Vigo displays significantly better home form with a +3 goal difference and a 29% home win rate, whereas Deportivo Alavés has catastrophic away results (71% losses, -13 goal difference). The hosts have averaged 1.6 points per game over the last 5 matches, while the visitors have managed only 0.6 points, failing to win any of their last five fixtures. A major concern for the visitors is their failure to score in 50% of their away matches, which, combined with a low average of 0.64 goals per away game, puts them in a very difficult position. The xG statistics also favor Celta (1.39 vs 1.22), and their advantage in possession (52% vs 50%) and shot accuracy (12% vs 6%) further supports the hosts. Considering all factors, a Celta victory is the most likely outcome, although their solid home draw percentage (36%) means a share of the points cannot be ruled out.
