Celta Vigo will look to continue their solid start to 2026 when they host Valencia at the Balaidos on Saturday. The Sky Blues ended 2025 with a goalless draw against Real Oviedo, a result that extended their run of stalemates this season. With just one home win in La Liga so far, Celta know a victory is crucial to climb closer to the European spots.
Valencia, meanwhile, arrive in 17th place with only 16 points from 17 games, struggling for goals and consistency away from home. Their last top-flight win came back in November against Levante, and Los Che will need to improve in attack if they are to avoid a defeat in Vigo.
Softfootball reported that both sides have underperformed at times this season, making this clash a tight contest. This match comes after Celta Vigo record first win over Real Madrid in 19 years at the Bernabeu , a confidence-boosting moment for the Sky Blues.
