Celta Vigo will look to bank on their home form as their quest to beat the drop sees them pit their wits against European-spot chasers Real Sociedad. This La Liga matchday 21 will be played at the Estadio Municipal de Balaídos in Vigo. Ahead of this round, the hosts are 16th with 17 points while the visitors are 6th with 32 points. The hosts start this round just two points above the bottom-three as their battle to avoid the drop is at an important juncture. They have lost just once across their last seven league games, winning two and drawing four. This record gets better at home as Celta have won and drawn two games each in their last four league matches here.

Sociedad are just three points behind eighth-placed Valencia, but six points behind fifth-placed Atletico Madrid. That said, they could have been in a better position had their recent form been better. Sociedad have won just one of their last six league games, drawing four and losing one. That loss came in their last league match against Athletic Bilbao. It came on the road, which has been a tough ask for Sociedad having struggled away from home. The visitors have in fact, won just two of their last seven away league games – drawing three and losing two. Thankfully for them, they have won their last four away games against Celta in the league, which could work in their favour on this trip.
