Celta Vigo vs Atletico Madrid Preview: Recent Form, News, and Possible Lineups
This can be a very exciting matchup between two teams in similar forms, so let's take a better look at both teams before they meet on Sunday.
Celta Vigo
With three wins, two draws, and just one loss in the last six games in the league, Celta Vigo managed to climb out of the relegation zone and get close to the middle of the standings. That being said, they remain just four points ahead of the first team in the relegation zone, so there is no room for complacency for sure.
Meanwhile, Agustin Marchesin is currently on the sidelines with an injury, while Unai Nunez is suspended at the moment.
Celta Vigo Predicted Lineup:
Villar – Mallo, Aidoo, Mingueza, Galan – Perez, Beltran, Veiga, De la Torre – Aspas, Larsen
Atletico Madrid
It's been a season full of ups and downs for Atletico Madrid so far, with downs being the more prominent ones. After all, the team is out of Champions League, out of Copa del Rey, and they are fourth in the league without any chance of winning the title basically. So, they will have to find a way to stay motivated, at least enough to secure a spot in Champions League next season.
When it comes to team news, Atletico Madrid is currently free of injuries and have no suspensions either to worry about.
Atletico Madrid Predicted Lineup:
Oblak – Reinildo, Savic, Hermoso – Molina, Llorente, Barrios, Koke, Lemar – Griezmann, Morata

Player to Watch: Antoine Griezmann
Since we expect a close duel between these two teams, we had a few different options to choose from as our player to watch, but we decided to go with experience and class of Antoine Griezmann.
The Frenchman has been pretty consistent this season in La Liga, with six goals and six assists in twenty appearances so far. With that in mind, Celta Vigo will have to find a way to stop him in this match if they want to get a good result.
