Preview: Barcelona vs Celta Vigo Prediction, odds, where to watch, time | LaLiga 2025-26
The Blaugrana are on a two-match winning streak against the Sky Blues.
FC Barcelona are now going to have a face-off against Celta de Vigo for their matchweek 32 fixture of the 2025-26 LaLiga. This is going to be an entertaining outing, taking place at the Spotify Camp Nou.
The Hansi Flick-led are coming in after getting knocked out of the UEFA Champions League. They were unable to do enough to get through against Atletico Madrid. They continue to be unlucky when it comes to the European competition.
On the other hand, FC Barcelona are doing really well in the Spanish top division. They are at the top of the league table and have a nine-point advantage over their fierce rivals, Real Madrid, who are in second place on the table. They will be at home for their upcoming game and will be looking to secure another win.
Celta de Vigo have been knocked out of the UEFA Europa League after their poor performances against SC Freiburg across both legs. They were completely outplayed by Real Oviedo in their previous league fixture. Claudio Giráldez’s men will be looking to return to winning ways, but the next contest is going to be a tough one for them.
Having won 11 of their 31 matches, the Sky Blues are placed sixth on the LaLiga points table. They might not play in the Champions League next season. But they do have a chance to qualify for the upcoming edition of the Europa League.
