Matchday 25 in the La Liga will see Celta de Vigo vs Mallorca take place on 22 February at the Balaidos Stadium in Vigo. Celta de Vigo vs Mallorca: prediction, betting odds and statistics.
Celta de Vigo
Celta de Vigo snatched a draw in an entertaining away game against Espanyol last weekend (2:2). The home side avoided a second straight defeat in the Primera, but their winless run in this competition has now reached four matches (two draws, two defeats). It is worth noting that the dip in form has been fairly abrupt, as the Galicians had previously recorded five wins in their last six league games. Nevertheless, the club remain in seventh place in the La Liga standings, and Celta de Vigo are exactly one point off the European places.
- The team have scored in 10 of their previous 11 home matches in the Primera.
- The Galicians’ no-draw run at home in this competition has lasted six games (three wins, three defeats).
- At least two goals have been scored in 17 of the last 18 league matches at Celta de Vigo’s ground.
Potential Celta de Vigo Lineup (3-4-3)*
Andrei Radu – Carl Starfelt, Marcos Alonso, Javi Rodriguez – Javier Rueda, Miguel Roman, Fer Lopez, Sergio Carreira – Williot Swedberg, Ferran Jutgla, Borja Iglesias.
Defender Alvaro Nunez and midfielder Hugo Sotelo are unavailable due to injury.
Mallorca
Mallorca dropped back into the relegation zone after the previous round. Losing to Real Betis at home (1:2), the visitors suffered their fifth defeat in the last seven La Liga matches. As a result, the team have collected just six points since the start of 2026. The islanders have found themselves in 18th place in the table more than once already. It is also worth noting that Mallorca have been unable to keep a clean sheet for nine consecutive matches in the Spanish top flight. Across the current Primera season, the club have conceded 39 goals in total—only Levante have a worse record by this metric (41).
- Both teams have scored in seven of the islanders’ previous nine La Liga games.
- Mallorca’s no-draw run in this competition has lasted seven matches (two wins, five defeats).
- Each of the club’s last seven league matches has gone over the totals line.
Potential Mallorca Lineup (4-2-3-1)*
Leo Roman – Pablo Maffeo, Martin Valjent, David Lopez, Johan Mojica – Samu Costa, Omar Mascarell – Mateo Joseph, Sergi Darder, Jan Virgili – Vedat Muriqi.
Forward Takuma Asano will miss out through injury.

Celta de Vigo vs Mallorca: Match Prediction
Celta de Vigo are still unable to snap out of the downturn that followed an excellent run of five wins in six La Liga matches. A week ago, the team battled to earn a point right at the death away at Espanyol; before that, the league brought two defeats and a goalless draw with Getafe. The Galicians appear to have improved at home, but they lost their most recent match in this competition, and overall this Primera season the club have managed just three wins from 12 possible home games.
Mallorca are going through a difficult spell, but their current position in the table forces them to fight in every match. In their last 13 La Liga games, the team have only lost by a margin of two goals when visiting the giants—Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. It is also worth adding that the islanders have avoided defeat in five of the last seven head-to-head meetings with Celta de Vigo in the Spanish top flight (three wins, two draws).
Prediction: Mallorca (+1)
