Celta Vigo will host Deportivo Alaves at the Municipal de Balaidos on Thursday night in another round of the Spanish La Liga campaign. The home side have endured a slow start to their league campaign and currently find themselves in the relegation zone. They were beaten 3-2 by

Barcelona in their last game, taking a two-goal lead via strikes from Jorgen Strand Larsen and Anastasios Douvikas before their opponents upped the ante and scored thrice in the final 10 minutes of the game to snatch all three points. Robert Lewandowski pulled Barcelona level with a brace, before Manchester City loanee Joao Cancelo won the game in the 89th minute to condemn Celta to a second straight defeat. Celta Vigo sit 18th in the league table with just four points from six games. Meanwhile, Deportivo Alaves were beaten 2-0 by Athletic Bilbao in their game at the weekend and had their chances to get on the scoresheet but were guilty of wasteful finishing. The visitors sit 14th in the La Liga standings, two points above their midweek opponents. I expect a win for Celta Vigo for the following reasons:

Firstly. After narrowly avoiding relegation last season, Celta Vigo brought in the experienced Rafael Benitez over the summer with the aim of overseeing an upturn in fortunes. They were seemingly on course to receive a much-need boost after taking a surprise 2-0 lead in Saturday's away trip to Barcelona, but a dramatic fightback in the final 10 minutes saw the champions turn the contest completely on its head. Thay was a close call for them to get their season on track. They will be looking to shake off their latest results and get back to winning ways this week.

Secondly. Deportivo Alaves have not fared much better than their opponents this season but remain hopeful of survival. They have six points to their name this season, and they picked up all of those points in their first two home matches, beating Sevilla in a seven-goal thriller, before edging out Valencia earlier this month. Luis Garcia's side have been unable to build upon their 1-0 win over Los Che, having lost both of their last two matches against Rayo Vallecano and Athletic Bilbao. They have scored just five goals in La Liga this season. Only Las Palmas (2) have scored fewer.

Celta are on a run of back-to-back defeats and have won just one of their six games this season. They have lost their last three games on home turf. They are yet to win a game on their home ground. Alaves have also lost their last two matches and have lost four of their last six league games. They have won just one of their last nine competitive games on the road. Judging by their performance in their last game, I expect Celta Vigo to finally get a home win tonight with the experience of Rafa Benitez.

周四晚上，维戈塞尔塔将在巴莱多斯市主场迎战拉科鲁尼亚，这是西甲联赛的另一轮。主队在联赛中经历了一个缓慢的开局，目前发现自己处于降级区。他们以3比2输给了

在上一场比赛中，巴塞罗那凭借拉尔森和杜维卡斯的进球取得了两球的领先，随后他们的对手加大了赌注，在比赛最后10分钟连进三球，将三分全部夺去。莱万多夫斯基用两粒进球将巴塞罗那扳平，随后曼城租借者坎塞洛在第89分钟赢得比赛，使塞尔塔连续两场失利。维戈塞尔塔6场比赛仅得4分，排名联赛第18位。与此同时，拉科鲁尼亚在上周末的比赛中0 - 2不敌毕尔巴鄂竞技，他们本有机会进球，但却因射门浪费而感到内疚。客队目前在西甲排名第14位，比周中对手高出2分。我希望维戈塞尔塔能赢，原因如下:

首先。在上赛季勉强保级后，维戈塞尔塔在夏天引进了经验丰富的贝尼特斯，目的是让球队的命运有所好转。在周六客场对阵巴塞罗那的比赛中，他们出人意料地以2-0领先，似乎他们即将获得迫切需要的鼓舞，但在最后10分钟的一次戏剧性的反击让冠军彻底改变了比赛。对他们来说，这是一次千钧一发的机会，让他们的赛季走上正轨。他们希望在本周摆脱最近的结果，回到胜利的道路上。

其次。拉科鲁尼亚本赛季的表现并不比他们的对手好多少，但他们仍然有希望生存下去。本赛季他们已经拿到了6分，他们在前两场主场比赛中就拿到了所有的积分，在7球惊心动目的比赛中击败了塞维利亚，并在本月早些时候淘汰了瓦伦西亚。路易斯·加西亚的球队在1-0战胜洛斯切的比赛中表现不佳，他们在最近两场对阵巴列卡诺和毕尔巴鄂竞技的比赛中都输掉了比赛。他们本赛季在西甲联赛中只进了5个球。只有拉斯帕尔马斯(2)得分比他少。

塞尔塔在本赛季的六场比赛中只赢了一场，遭遇了背靠背的失败。他们在主场输掉了最近三场比赛。他们还没有在自己的主场赢过一场比赛。阿拉维斯也输掉了最近两场比赛，并且在最近6场联赛中输掉了4场。他们在最近的九场客场比赛中只赢了一场。从他们上一场比赛的表现来看，我希望维戈塞尔塔能在贝尼特斯的带领下赢得一场主场胜利。
