The match “Elche” – “Celta Vigo” of the 16th stage of the Spanish championship is scheduled for Friday, January 6, at 19:30 at the “Manuel Martinez Valero” stadium, its live broadcast will be shown by Digi Sport 2, Orange Sport 2 and Prima Sport 1.

Elche and Celta Vigo, two teams in a major points crisis, open the 16th stage of LaLiga, the first championship scheduled for 2023.

Elche have been stuck in 20th place at the bottom of the table for months, with just four points accumulated after 15 matches, nine adrift of the first team above the relegation zone, 17th-placed Celta Vigo.

The team coached by Pablo Machin is in a critical situation and avoiding relegation after a third consecutive season spent in La Liga seems like an impossible mission.

Elche are winless this season, have the weakest attack in the league, only 10 goals scored (the same as Cádiz), and the weakest defense with 33 goals conceded.

The Greens come after managing only one draw in their last five league games, losing 0-2 to Atletico Madrid in the last one.

In addition, in the first match of 2023, Elche were ignominiously relegated from the Copa del Rey, losing 0-1 away to Ceuta, a team from RFEF Primera (Spain’s third division).

Celta Vigo is 17th in the table with 13 points accumulated after 15 matches, after three draws and two defeats in the last five league matches, the last home draw with Sevilla – 1-1.

The Galicians, who have been coached by Portuguese Carlos Carvalhal since November 2, 2022, were also eliminated from the Spanish Cup, losing 1-3 to Espanyol away to Barcelona.

Last season, Elche and Celta Vigo split the victories, each of the two teams managed to win at home with the same score of 1-0.
