Goals from Vincenzo Grifo, Niklas Beste and Matthias Ginter put them in control, and they also restricted Celta to very few clear chances, with the Spanish side failing to register a shot on target in that match. Freiburg have now scored 18 goals in the competition this season while conceding just six, underlining their balance at both ends of the pitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The German side have been particularly strong at home in Europe, winning all their group and knockout matches at the Europa-Park Stadion this season, and they have also shown resilience away from home, including a key 5-1 aggregate win over Genk in the last round. Celta, meanwhile, have struggled for consistency, conceding heavily in domestic and European fixtures in recent weeks. With Freiburg unbeaten in several recent European ties and holding a commanding aggregate lead, they will feel well placed to reach the semi-finals if they manage the return leg in Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SquawkaBet\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"114\" src=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1024x114.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1415389\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1024x114.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-300x33.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-768x86.jpg 768w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-1536x171.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-400x45.jpg 400w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-600x67.jpg 600w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-538x60.jpg 538w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-150x17.jpg 150w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1-40x4.jpg 40w, https:\/\/media.squawka.com\/images\/2025\/11\/28163831\/Group-14764-1.jpg 1792w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Celta Vigo arrive at their Europa League quarter-final second leg against SC Freiburg needing a near-miracle after a 3-0 first-leg defeat in Spain, where they failed to register a shot on target and were comfortably second best. That result left them with just one win in their last four European matches and underlined defensive issues, having conceded 16 goals across the competition while scoring 21 overall this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Domestically and in Europe, Celta\u2019s campaign has been inconsistent, with heavy defeats mixed with narrow wins, including a 2-0 aggregate victory over Lyon in the previous round that briefly raised hopes of a deep run. However, their latest setback has continued a trend of fragile form at key moments, and they now face the daunting task of overturning a three-goal deficit away from home. Despite the odds, Celta will lean on their attacking talents such as Iago Aspas in search of an early breakthrough to ignite belief at Bala\u00eddos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s incredibly difficult to see Celta Vigo turning over a three-goal margin on Thursday and instead of backing the match result, we like the look of two player-based bets. The first of those is for Vincenzo Grifo to find the net at 10\/3, while the 11\/4 for Marcos Alonso to be carded gives plenty of appeal. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read
