Team News

Celta Vigo
Real Sociedad
  • Hugo Mallo is suspended for the home side, but Iago Aspas has had his ban overturned and will start.
  • Alvaro Lemos could deputise at right-back for Eduardo Berizzo's men, or Facundo Roncaglia could push wide to allow Andreu Fontas to start at centre-back.
  • Theo Bongonda and Daniel Wass will be the candidates to replace Iago Aspas on the right wing.
  • David Zurutuza returns from a ban for the away side and should slot straight back into the centre of the midfield.
  • Raul Navas is suspended, however, with an injury to Mikel Gonzalez ensuring that it will be Aritz Elustondo who gets a rare run-out at centre-back.
  • Juanmi should be preferred to Mikel Oyarzabal out on the left-hand side of the attack, with Eusebio otherwise keeping things the same.

Prediction

  • Celta have lost their last six league games, scoring just four goals in the process, as the hosts' season continues to wind down in disappointing fashion after their Europa League semi-final exit.
  • However, the home side can start Iago Aspas here after his suspension was overturned, which comes as a boost.
  • Real Sociedad have already won nine games on the road in La Liga this campaign, and are unbeaten in their last five coming into this clash. With Europa League football the aim, a win is a must.
