Best Tip: Both teams to score

Both Celta and Espanyol fans should have some reason to cheer as their teams go head-to-head, with KickOff's prediction of both teams to score looking a far more convincing pick than any bet on the full time result market. The two sides have goals in them, as is borne out by the statistics and past head-to-head data below. Even the bookies odds are not finding anything to pick between the sides, as striking power and defensive options suggest each team is capable of both scoring and conceding. Both teams to score is the way to go here.
