What to expect
We expect about 1.4 goals from Valencia and 1.3 from Celta, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 2.8 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.
Our pick: Valencia to win. Valencia are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 1.4-1.3), and we make them about 39% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.
We put the chance of that landing at about 39 out of 100. The price on offer is 2.43, which works out at about 41 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.

One thing to watch
A red card, a penalty or a smash-and-grab is all it takes for Celta to spoil this. We make it about 39% and the price sits right on top of that, so there's little cushion if it turns.
