Omonia vs Celta VigoPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

At the GSP Stadium in Nicosia, Omonia Nicosia and Celta Vigo open the league phase: neither side has played in this competition yet, so the reference points are their recent outings. Omonia Nicosia come in with two wins, one draw and two defeats: a 4-1 away at Aris is the latest result, before that a 0-1 at home to Pafos and a 0-0 with Omonia Aradippou; further back a 4-2 at home against St. Truiden and a 0-1 away at the same St. Truiden. Eight goals scored and five conceded across that stretch, with two four-goal games of their own and three matches without scoring. Celta Vigo have not won any of their last five: three draws and two defeats, two goals scored and five conceded. A 1-1 away at Getafe is the freshest result, before that a 0-0 at Real Sociedad and a 0-2 at home to Athletic Club; further back a 1-2 with Osasuna and a 0-0 away at Valencia. Three of those five matches ended without a goal scored. There are no previous meetings between the two clubs on record. The league phase has only just begun and no tournament goal average is available yet. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
