PREVIEW | ATLÉTICO DE MADRID - RC CELTA

Celta de Vigo visit the Riyadh Air Metropolitano

The ball gets rolling this Saturday at 18:30 CEST in our Matchday 35 LALIGA EA SPORTS clash against Claudio Giráldez’s side.

LaLiga action returns to our stadium this weekend as we host Celta de Vigo on Saturday at 18:30 CEST in the Matchday 35 encounter.

We head into this fixture against the Galician side following our defeat to Arsenal in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals. In our most recent domestic outing, last week at Mestalla against Valencia (2-0), goals from Iker Luque and Miguel Cubo gave us all three points.

Meanwhile, the Sky Blues arrive at our stadium sitting sixth in the table with 47 points to their name. Their last league outing came last weekend against Elche at Balaídos, where they secured a 3-1 victory courtesy of goals from Hugo Álvarez, Iago Aspas and Borja Iglesias.

In the reverse fixture earlier this season, our side travelled to Vigo at the beginning of October, with the points shared on the day. We have faced the Galician club on 134 occasions, recording 81 wins, 25 draws and 28 defeats.
