Football Bet of the Day: Back defences to leak in La Liga

Goals could flow at both ends in La Liga this evening, says Tobias Gourlay.

  • Rayo scored in 8/8 home games
  • Celta netted in 6/8 on the road
  • Back BTTS

Rayo Vallecano v Celta Vigo

Friday 20:00 (Live on Premier Player)

In Scotland last night, Dundee got out to an early lead, Rangers hit back before half-time… and then nothing. 1-1 at the final whistle and we finished a couple of goals short of our target.

We’re licking our wounds​ іn Spain, where 12th-placed Rayo Vallecano host 11th-placed Celta Vigo​ іn​ La Liga tonight. We’re backing both sides​ tо​ at least find the back​ оf the net.

The market’s finding it hard to split these two and it could be a back-and-forth affair. Rayo have scored in all eight of their home games this season. They’ve been less impressive at the back: both teams have scored in 7/8, with Rayo most recently drawing 3-3 with Real Madrid here.

Celta are W1-D1-L6 on the road, but they’ve been scoring regularly – finding the back of the net at least once in 6/8. With 5/8 also delivering on BTTS bets, that’s our punt on this one.

Conclusion

The match between Rayo Vallecano and Celta Vigo is expected to be high-scoring, with both teams likely to score. A bet on “Both Teams to Score” seems like a solid choice given the current form of both teams.
