Goal Statistics

Celta de Vigo have been reliable in front of goal of late, finding the net in 7 consecutive Europa League games. Their PG of 1.5 against Lille on Thursday suggests that run is likely to continue.

Celta de Vigo's defensive record is very strong, C. Giráldez González's men having conceded 1 or less in 7 consecutive Europa League matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.3 for Lille makes sense in this context.
