Celta Vigo will look to bounce back when they host Alaves at Balaídos on October 18, 2026. The home side, currently boasting a 35% win rate, has endured a challenging period, securing just one win and one draw in their last five outings, suffering three defeats. Their attacking prowess has yielded 44 goals this season, though 40 conceded highlights defensive vulnerabilities.
Alaves, with a lower 26% win rate, arrive with slightly better recent form, having won one and drawn three of their last five, losing just once. They’ve scored 35 goals and conceded 46, suggesting this could be a tight affair with both teams aiming to improve their defensive records.
The head-to-head record is evenly split, with a dramatic 3-4 Alaves victory in their last encounter underscoring the potential for goals. Celta Vigo are favorites with a 45% win probability, but Alaves’ resilient recent form and the tight H2H history suggest a draw is equally likely. Watch for Celta's attacking flair against Alaves' stubborn defense, with the Over/Under 2.5 odds leaning towards a lower-scoring game.
