Celta Vigo enters Saturday’s match against Espanyol full of momentum, riding an eight-match unbeaten streak that includes five victories. Their 2-1 win over Mallorca last weekend kept them in the hunt for a European spot, sitting seventh in La Liga with 43 points, two ahead of Real Sociedad. At Balaídos, they've been strong lately, winning five of their last seven league games and suffering just one defeat in that stretch. Celta is in strong form and chasing Betis, so this game for them is very important. Espanyol, though sitting 16th, are not to be underestimated. Their stunning 4-0 win over Rayo Vallecano last weekend not only lifted spirits but also pushed them four points clear of the relegation zone with a game in hand. While wins have been rare, just two in their last seven league outings, they’ve managed to avoid defeat in five of those matches. Their away form has picked up as well, with two wins in their last three on the road. Espanyol is coming to battle for points, so I see a big clash between these two teams. Both teams need points, so I expect a cautious start to the match, with a lot of tension. Despite Celta being the favourite here, Espanyol is a team that is in a need for points and I can see a possible surprise here.

Celta Vigo predicted lineup (3-4-3): Vicente Guaita (GK), Javi Rodriguez, Carl Starfelt, Marcos Alonso, Sergio Carreira, Fran Beltran, Ilaix Moriba, Oscar Mingueza, Iago Aspas, Borja Iglesias, Alfon Gonzalez.

Espanyol predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): Joan Garcia (GK), Omar El Hilali, Marash Kumbulla, Leandro Cabrera, Carlos Romero, Urko Gonzalez, Pol Lozano, Antoniu Roca, Edu Exposito, Javier Puado, Roberto Fernandez.

维戈塞尔塔将在周六与西班牙人的比赛中充满动力，他们已经取得了八场不败，其中包括五场胜利。上周末他们2-1战胜马洛卡队，以43分排名西甲第七，领先皇家社会2分，使他们继续争夺欧洲席位。在Balaídos，他们最近一直很强大，在过去的七场联赛中赢了五场，在这段时间里只输了一场。塞尔塔状态很好，正在追赶贝蒂斯，所以这场比赛对他们来说非常重要。西班牙人虽然排在第16位，但也不容小觑。他们上周4-0击败巴列卡诺不仅振奋了士气，而且还在少赛一场的情况下将自己从降级区提升了4分。虽然胜利很少，在过去的七场联赛中只有两场，但他们在其中五场比赛中避免了失败。他们的客场状态也有所好转，在最近的三场客场比赛中取得了两场胜利。西班牙人正在为积分而战，所以我认为这两支球队之间会有很大的冲突。两支球队都需要得分，所以我希望这场比赛开局谨慎，气氛紧张。尽管塞尔塔是最受欢迎的球队，但西班牙人是一支需要积分的球队，我可以在这里看到一个可能的惊喜。

塞尔塔-维戈预测阵容（3-4-3）：比森特-瓜伊塔（GK）、哈维-罗德里格斯、卡尔-斯塔费尔特、马科斯-阿隆索、塞尔吉奥-卡雷拉、弗兰-贝尔特兰、伊莱克斯-森巴、奥斯卡-明格萨、伊阿古-阿斯帕斯、博尔哈-伊格莱西亚斯、阿尔丰-冈萨雷斯。
