In head-to-head games, Espanyol had defeated Celta in their last meeting.
Celta Vigo's next LALIGA match is away against Barcelona on April 19, 2025, which will be a tough test, considering Barcelona's strong recent form, including a 4-0 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League. Celta Vigo will need to improve their finishing to stand a chance. Espanyol, on the other hand, will face Getafe at home on April 18, 2025. Given Getafe's recent form, Espanyol will be optimistic about securing another positive result. This victory against Celta Vigo will boost Espanyol's confidence.
Analyzing Celta Vigo's previous games, their struggles in converting possession into goals were evident in the draw against Las Palmas.

This win follows Espanyol's pattern of alternating between wins and draws, breaking the pattern. Historically, head-to-head matches between Celta Vigo and Espanyol have been closely contested, though Espanyol won the last game between them. Celta Vigo will have to improve their attacking efficiency if they wish to get a result at Barcelona.
