Comments and predictions for Celta Vigo vs Las Palmas: Narrow victory

Latest Celta Vigo vs Las Palmas team information

Celta will be without Williot Swedberg due to a thigh injury, while Oscar Mingueza is suspended following a yellow card picked up in the 1-0 win over Real Valladolid before the international break.

Damian Rodriguez could be the beneficiary of Mingueza's absence and is likely to start at left-back in a three-man centre-back system.

The attacking trio of Iago Aspas, Alfon Gonzalez and Borja Iglesias started against Real Valladolid and are likely to be relied upon again this time around. In midfield, Hugo Sotelo is almost certain to start again.

For Las Palmas, Benito Ramirez will be absent due to a muscle injury. Meanwhile, Kirian Rodriguez had a relapse of cancer in early February and will not be able to play for the rest of the season.

Viti Rozada and Dario Essugo have both returned to the squad after serving their suspensions. Essugo is likely to start, while Fabio Silva and Sandro Ramirez will start in attack.

Both Silva and Ramirez have been in fine scoring form for Las Palmas in 2024-25, with eight goals apiece in La Liga. However, the team has struggled with a lack of goalscoring contributions from the rest of the pitch.

Latest football commentary Celta Vigo vs Las Palmas

Celta enter Monday's match on a six-match unbeaten run, which includes four wins, including their last two against Leganes and Real Valladolid.

Coach Claudio Giraldez's team currently has a record of 11 wins, 6 draws and 11 losses after 28 rounds, earning 39 points and ranking 9th on the rankings, 5 points behind the sixth-placed team Real Betis.

Celta have not finished in the top six since 2015-16, so this season could be a turning point for the club. They are in excellent form at the most crucial stage of the season, and their goal of qualifying for European football is entirely within reach.

Celta's home ground is a solid support when they have won 29 points after 14 matches here. Meanwhile, Las Palmas only have 11 points after 14 away matches this season.

Celta have beaten Las Palmas in both of their last two meetings, including a 4-1 win in the second leg last season and a 1-0 win in the first leg in October 2024.

As for Las Palmas, they have not won a game since late December. They are on a 10-game winless streak in La Liga, and are currently in the relegation zone as the season enters its crucial stages.

Diego Martinez's team have just had two draws against Real Valladolid and Alaves, in between was a 0-1 defeat to Real Betis. They have only won 25 points after 28 matches this season.

Las Palmas are 19th in the table, just two points behind 17th-placed Alaves. They still have a chance of staying up, but their inability to win is a serious problem, especially when their defense is not solid.

Indeed, the Canaries have conceded 47 goals in 28 games – the second-worst defensive record in the league, ahead of only Real Valladolid – and this could prove costly in their relegation battle.

Las Palmas last beat Celta 2-1 in October 2023. However, they have not won at Celta in Vigo since October 2011, when they were in Spain's second division.
