Osasuna-Celta Vigo is a match valid for the twenty-third day of La Liga and is played Sunday at 16:15: TV, formations and predictions
On the one hand, a team that has put a little bit of points on the chopping block and therefore looks forward to today’s match with some peace of mind. On the other hand, a formation that seemed to have pulled itself out of the negative moment and instead, after three defeats in a row, finds itself again entangled in the red zones of the standings. Both need points. And both will do everything to succeed.
And what usually happens when there is this situation in the standings? That especially Rafa Benitez’s Celta Vigo, one point above the relegation zone, could settle for a draw that would move the standings as mentioned after three defeats in a row. The guests are back to having to fight for safety after a series of good results that had given them a little breathing room. It looked like a sign of recovery, but instead 2024 started in the worst way for Celta, now desperate for a positive result. The moment is not great for Osasuna either, to be honest. Which, however, as pointed out earlier, has made quite a few useful results over the course of the fall that now allow them to look with much less apprehension at the standings. Let’s say that even the hosts objectively could be satisfied with a draw.
The prediction
Yes, draw challenge, maybe even with one goal per team. One point each to get back on the move in the standings. A point that would suit both.
