• Celta Vigo vs Valencia Prediction: La Liga match on 14.05.2023

La Liga Preview

It has been a reliable end to the season for Atletico Madrid, as they have taken second spot in the league standings off their cross-city rivals Real Madrid. They come into this match in excellent recent form, as they have won each of their previous three, while they have secured four wins over their previous five. 

Atletico’s attacking players have certainly impressed in recent weeks, as the club have now scored 13 goals in their previous three matches. They were excellent once again last week, as they registered a huge 5-1 win at home against Cadiz. Antoine Griezmann was a standout performer in that match, as he netted twice. Meanwhile, further goals were added by Alvaro Morata, Yannick Carrasco, and Nahuel Molina.

It has been a campaign to forget for Elche, as their relegation back to the second tier has already been confirmed. They remain bottom of the standings after 33 rounds of fixtures, and they are 15 points adrift of 19th-placed Espanyol. Elche comes into this match after losing four of their previous five. 

Meanwhile, no side in the Spanish top-flight has lost more games, conceded more goals or scored fewer goals than the hosts this weekend. Furthermore, they have claimed just three victories all season, with their most recent coming in the form of a shock 4-0 home win against Rayo Vallecano at the end of April.
