CEV VS OSA Dream 11 Prediction: Relegation zone slumped Celta Vigo look to curtail their floundering spree come 2020.
NOTE: We have made changes to our Dream11 team after the lineups were announced
OUT: S Lobotka
IN: I Aspas
They ended 2019 on a horrid note, finding themselves slumping down all the way into the relegation zone. It’s a position which Celta Vigo will be looking to claw out of when they make an advent into their first tie of the new year as they strive to spruce up what has been an agonising tie out in the league till now.
They make a foray into the fray of today’s clash having been defeated 3-1 by Leganes the last time around, a result which sees them winless in their previous four outings. They have managed to win just the three matches this term but with Mallorca just the sole point infront of them, a win for Celta Vigo will take them out of the dreaded zone.
Elsewhere, for Osasuna who ended up failing short by the one goal in a seven goal thriller against Real Sociedad the last time around, a win is equally pertinent. The side is winless in its last three outings, slumping all the way into 13th position as they endure a sordid spree of results at the moment.
Probable Winner
This will be a closely contested encounter with us favouring the visiting side for this one. Osasuna are capable of scoring a bunch of goals against laggard defences, a narrative which will favour them as they come across a howler of a defensive unit.

Dream 11 Picks
Goal-Keeper
Having let in 28 goals in 18 matches this term, Celta Vigo have failed to instil kind of confidence in them this season. However, it’s not due to Ruben Blanco’s fault with the shot stopper emerging an a watchdog of his side’s goal to pull off a slew of saves for the side.
Defenders
Although Osasuna’s defence has been as abysmal as Celta Vigo’s this term, they are coming across a side which has scored just 15 goals this season. This could be the ideal match to imbue some much lost confidence in their backline as they look to refrain Celta Vigo from scoring to lead us towards a partnership from the side.
Pervis Estupinan and David Garcia are both coming into our side with the players capable of putting to bed any attacking unit on the day. Elsewhere, with an affinity to find the goal, Celta Vigo find representation in the sole player with us venturing in with Joseph Aidoo for the encounter.
Midfielders
At a aide when his side have faltered in their attacking travails, Ruben Garcia has been more than willing to wage a lone battle for his side. The player has scored 5 times for his side this season to see him become an instant selection for the tie alongside Roberto Torres who has scored once for his side.
Oier Sanjurjo will be coming in as well from the side to wrap up our trio of selections from the side while from the opposition we are dwelling in the services of a duo for the day. In Pione Sisto and Stanislav Lobotka, the side has a diminutive and myriad partnership at its hands, one capable of torching up any defence and moving in tandem to come up with either a goal or assist for their side.
Strikers
Osasuna’s leading scorer with the 8 goals to his name, Ezequiel Avila was always going to be an instant pick for us from the day with the player set to accumulate even more come today. Elsewhere, it’s the one player form the other side of the facet as well with Santi Mina wrapping up proceedings for the day.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Avila will be captaining our team for the day while Garcia is our vice-captain.
