How to Watch Celta Vigo vs Almeria: Stream La Liga Live, TV Channel
A battle against La Liga relegation is looming large for a Celta Vigo side boasting just one win from its last seven outings as it prepares to host last-place Almeria on Friday. Los Celestes are hovering three points above the bottom three entering Week 27 and are two months removed from their last win at Balaidos but will not encounter a better opportunity to snap that streak than against the team that looks fated to drop back down a division this term. Rafa Benitez will require all his managerial mastery to keep Celta in the top flight, and capitalizing on Friday’s chance will prove key to his chances of success in that plight.

It’s almost unfathomable that Almeria has made it as far as March still waiting on its first win of the league campaign, with the club at serious risk of setting a new low in La Liga for points accrued.
As things stand, the Sporting Gijon team of 1997-98 holds the record for the fewest points accumulated in a season on 13, which came soon after the number of points awarded for a win was increased from two to three.
La Unión have earned all nine of their points from the same number of draws so far this campaign, a dismal two of which have come on the road.
Needless to say Gaizka Garitano’s side is entering desperation stage—if they’re not there already—and could see its fate sealed as early as April on the current trajectory.
Willot Swedberg emerged in the 87th minute to snatch all three points for Celta when these teams met at the Power Horse Stadium in September, despite Sergio Akieme briefly pulling the game back level for Almeria from two goals down.
There’s a chance Benitez’s men could soon be pulled down into the relegation quagmire without a swift reversal in its home fortunes, and Almeria presents a major chance to do just that.
