Sant Andreu faces Celta Vigo tonight in a Copa del Rey second-round clash at Camp Municipal Narcís Sala. The Spanish LaLiga side enters as overwhelming favorites seeking a convincing victory. Sant Andreu will look to upset the odds after advancing past Teruel with an extra-time goal.

🔥 Quick Facts

  • Match kicks off at 20:00 UTC (8:00 PM PST / 9:00 PM EST) on December 4, 2025
  • Sant Andreu knocked out Teruel via extra time, winning 2-1 with an Emilio Lucas goal in the 110th minute
  • Celta Vigo has won 5 of their last 6 away matches across all competitions before tonight
  • Sports Mole predicts a 0-3 Celta Vigo victory based on quality disparity and recent form

Why Celta Vigo Dominates This Fixtures

The LaLiga side brings significant quality and experience to Camp Municipal Narcís Sala tonight. Despite suffering back-to-back defeats recently, losing 3-2 to Ludogorets in Europe and 1-0 to Espanyol domestically, Celta Vigo remains heavily favored. Their away record provides strong evidence of superiority, with five wins in their last six road trips across all competitions.

Sant Andreu, meanwhile, arrives on a three-match winless streak in their Segunda División campaign. Their most recent setback came in a 2-1 home loss to Girona B. While they showed fighting spirit against Teruel, requiring extra time to advance, tonight represents a massive step up in quality and intensity.

Sant Andreu Seek Morale Boost After Poor Form

Coach Natxo González‘s team requires immediate revival after successive disappointing results. Sant Andreu scraped past Teruel thanks to Emilio Lucas’s 110th-minute goal, following Sergi Serrano’s 19th-minute opener being cancelled by Andres Rodríguez’s late equalizer. Tonight they face a completely different challenge against Claudio Giraldez’s Celta Vigo setup.

The hosts will likely make tactical adjustments to their formation but lack the personnel to genuinely trouble the visitors. Sant Andreu’s recent struggles in the second division suggest they’ll have limited opportunities to create clear chances against a team accustomed to LaLiga competition.

What To Watch Tonight: Key Storylines and Predictions

Will Celta Vigo Bounce Back? Tonight offers the perfect opportunity for the visitors to shake off their recent disappointments. Coach Giraldez may rotate his squad with several fringe players given opportunities, but even a weakened Celta side should dominate a second-division team in poor form.

Multiple prediction models align closely on the likely outcome. Tips.gg projects a 1-3 Celta victory, while Forebet forecasts 1-2. The consensus remains that Celta will advance comfortably with a multi-goal advantage. Sant Andreu’s primary goal becomes survival and potential damage limitation rather than seeking points.

Key performance indicators suggest Celta’s attacking players will find space regularly, particularly down the flanks. Sant Andreu’s stretched recursos defensivos will struggle against the pace and technical ability of the Galician side’s attacking options, particularly if Borja Iglesias leads the line and finds support.
