La Liga: Vigo Celta vs Real Betis

At 3 am on August 28, the third round of La Liga will usher in a focus matchup. Celta sits at the Valledos Stadium to face Real Betis. Celta performs poorly in the new season. He loses 0-2 to promoter Levante at home in the first round, and draws Mallorca 1-1 away from home. Currently, he has 1 draw and 1 loss and has 1 point. He is currently ranked third from the bottom in the standings and is on the edge of the relegation zone. Real Betis is in a relatively stable state. He beat Alaves 2-1 at home in the first round, and has 0-0 away with Athletic Bilbao, with 1 win and 1 draw and 4 points, ranking in the middle of the league. Since the season has just begun, the gap between the two sides is not very big. So what exactly is this game? Let's take a look at the specific situation:

Celta had 1 draw and 1 loss at the beginning of the new season, and was temporarily ranked third from the bottom in the standings; the results were not satisfactory, the team's offensive output was mediocre, the defense line was not stable, and there was no advantage at home. Coach Hilardes continued to use the 4-2-3-1 system, relying on the vertical impact of wingers Rodriguez (5 goals and 7 assists last season) and Duran (3.1 breakthroughs per game). It targeted the gap after Betis's fullback, this game was a home game, which was a very good advantage for the team, and it depends on whether they could seize the opportunity.

Real Betis is currently unbeaten with 1 win and 1 draw, and his offense and defense balance is temporarily in the middle of the league. The 71-year-old Chilean coach Pellegrini's 4-3-3 system emphasizes midfield control. The passing success rate of Fernals + Roca's double midfield combination is 89%, which can effectively cut Celta's frontcourt connection. Although this game is away, he has the chance to get points against Celta.

In the two matches last season, Vigo Celta maintained an unbeaten record with 1 win and 1 draw. Although Vigo Celta performed well last season, its performance at the beginning of this season was a bad start. Real Betis maintained an unbeaten record at the beginning. Although he did not create more goals on the offensive end, he maintained an unbeaten posture with a solid defense. The two coaches, Gilardes and Pellegrini, had three encounters, each winning 1. Peshuai led the team to Celta 16 times in his coaching career, with 5 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses. Now the two teams meet. Let us wait and see who can win in the end!
