class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Celta de Vigo have struggled to win at Mestalla in recent years, but they travel in better form and with more attacking firepower. Valencia\u2019s record in this fixture is strong, yet their defence remains vulnerable, while Celta\u2019s own back line is far from watertight. With both teams consistently finding the net and their last six matchups averaging nearly three goals apiece, this looks primed for action at both ends. Our recommended bet is <a href=\"\/en\/go\/bet365?q=gb-all-con-wof-s-spo&amp;bs=191359749-847877063~10\/11~0&amp;bet=1\">Both Teams to Score at 10\/11 (52.4%) with Bet365<\/a> \u2013 a tip that\u2019s landed in most recent meetings between these sides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><small>Odds correct at the time of writing.
