Celta Vigo are unbeaten across their last four games at Balaidos
Bilbao won just two of their last six on the road – losing three
Bilbao scored a 98th minute penalty to win the reverse fixture 4-3
Sky Blues can condemn Cadiz with victory over Bilbao
Five points separate 17th-placed Celta Vigo and Cadiz – who occupy the final relegation spot – with three games left to play and the Sky Blues could secure their La Liga safety against Bilbao should results go their way.
Claudio Giraldez’s side have been in promising form at Balaidos in recent weeks, winning three and drawing one of their last four – including an impressive 3-2 win over Europe chasing Villarreal in their last home fixture.
Bilbao have struggled on the road in recent weeks, winning two and losing three of their last six league away days, while they were also held to a goalless draw by bottom side Almeria.
The visitors are already assured of a Europa League spot and so have very little to play for in the dying embers of the campaign, which could open the door for Celta to claim a safety ensuring victory. The Sky Blues have scored seven goals across their last two home games but they failed to keep clean sheets in either and so should allow Bilbao to score at some stage, with a 2-1 final score drawing the eye.
