Sevilla vs Celta Vigo Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

All eyes will be on Eduardo Berizzo here. Having guided Celta Vigo to the Europa League Semi-Finals last term, he swapped Galicia for Seville in the summer. Although the jury is still out on his new-look Sevilla side, they have at least found some home form now and they look the more likely winners here.

The Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán is one of, if not the most atmospheric stadiums in Spain and it really has been a fortress for Sevilla in recent years. Therefore it will come as a relief to Berizzo that his side have now won 6 straight home games in all competitions. If they avoid defeat here, which they certainly should, it will be 25 home matches without defeat since a Champions League loss to Juventus last November.

They haven’t quite settled on their best starting eleven, particularly in the final third, so they’ve been a bit disjointed at times but they have still tended to find a way to win. Nolito is another man who could face his former club here but he’s one of a number of summer signings who’ve yet to hit the ground running.

Sevilla do though have an 80% home win ratio in La Liga this term though and Celta may struggle to dent that. The Galicians have been very inconsistent and they haven’t  recorded back-to-back wins since way back in April. They were conceding far too many goals and have changed from a 4-3-3 to a 4-4-2 to try and counter that but it’s still 1.55 goals per game conceded and 1.6 away in La Liga this season.

They’ve lost 60% of their away league games, including a defeat to bottom club Malaga in their last away fixture and with Sevilla so strong at home, going for Sevilla to Win looks like the smart bet.

Backing Sevilla & Over 2.5 Goals could also be worth a flutter. All of Sevilla’s last 6 competitive games have seen over 2.5 goals and so have all of Celta Vigo’s away league games this term.

Pastor admits defrauding Atiku of N918m

A confessional statement tendered before an Ikeja High Court on Tuesday revealed how Pastor Nsikakabasi Akpan-Jacobs voluntarily confessed defrauding Mrs Titi Atiku, the wife of former Vice-President Abubakar Atiku of N918 million. Mr Dickson Graymond, a retired detective with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) insisted on the voluntariness of Akpan-Jacob’s alleged confessional statement while giving evidence during a trial. While being led in evidence by Mr Babatunde Sonoiki, the EFCC prosecuting counsel, Graymond said: “There are so many things that he confided in me that he refused to put into writing. “He admitted to me that Florence Doregos was Titi Atiku but he refused to put that into writing. “He confided in me that he wanted to contest in the Akwa-Ibom elections and that as soon as he begs Her Excellency, the matter will be over. “All what he told me were not forced, I did not even force him to write all what he confided in me in his confessional ...

Epic tho.. davido shades Caroline danjuma in new track #FIA

On his new single titled “Fia,” Davido subliminally shaded actress and girlfriend of late Tagbo, Caroline Danjuma. The two celebrities had a face-off that led them to the police for resolution. The issue emanated from the Caroline Danjuma’s Instagram post, accusing Davido of being involved in Tagbo’s death. The issue seem to have been resolved by the Nigerian police, with Davido vindicated and Caroline Danjuma embracing peace. But as expected, Davido addressed the issue on his latest single, Fia. His lyrics on the song, seem to be a shade to the beautiful actress. On the song, Davido said: “Caroline save your drama I dont need it, (its) for the soap opera. Holla holla Mr. Olopa I’m not hear to cause wahala o. Hello diva save your drama, you don’t need it in your soap opera o….”

To the surprise of several people, the statue erected was without a head and this raised a lot of suspiscion and comments from fans of the late Afrobeat legend. Responding on behalf of the family, Fela’s daughter and social commentator, Yeni Kuti has justified the design of the monument, saying it was the expression of how the artist felt about the late legend. She said: ‘Before people on social media will start to say the Fela has no head or it has no hand and so on, it is art and before you abuse us, let me answer quickly. It is art. How an artist feels is how he feels because if he had put a head and the head did not look like Fela, everybody will say the head did not look like Fela so now you cannot abuse the head because it is not even t...
