Celta, who just escaped relegation last year, haven’t begun this one any better. They’ve managed a win in their opening seven matches, and just have six points on the board so far.
This game would be the battle of the team’s leading scorers up to now against the group with the joint least number of intentions. Real Sociedad have scored 14 times in seven matches, while Celta has managed only four goals in the same variety of matches.
