Celta Vigo
With the top-half of the La Liga occupied by the usual suspects, the middle table is where all the action is! Teams from seventh to 13th in the table are separated by just a couple of points and that tells the whole story. Celta are eight after 20 games (28 pts, W8, D4, L8). A win in this Celta Vigo vs Real Betis encounter will them to seventh and within one point of sixth-placed Sevilla. While a draw will also move them up the table one place, a defeat at the hands of Betis will pull them down by a place.
