Number of the match7That is how many shots Juventus took in the first half, and even though one of them was on target, they are losing at the break.
Stats versus the scoreboard. On paper Juventus had more of the game: 52% possession and 7 shots to the hosts' 4. Only the shots on target tell a different story: Celta de Vigo 2, Juventus 1. That is why the scoreboard looks different from the stats sheet.
The goal that changed the picture of the half. In the 18th minute Hugo Álvarez scored for Celta de Vigo, with Williot Swedberg providing the assist. That one moment set the score at the break: Celta de Vigo 1–0 Juventus. In matchday 2 of the Europa League, leading with fewer shots is impressive.

Number of the match5That is how many injured players Juventus have on their absentee list before the trip to Vigo.
Two extremes of the table
In Matchday 2 of the Europa League, teams from opposite ends of the table meet. Celta de Vigo are 26th and have no points yet after one match. Juventus lead the standings with a perfect 3 points, also after one match. Celta are the hosts. Both teams have played the same number of matches, so the gap in the table comes purely from the results of the first round. For Celta, that was a trip to Nicosia.
Celta after the defeat to Omonia
Celta began the league phase with a 0–1 defeat away to Cyprus's Omonia in Nicosia. It is their last match in European competition before the game against Juventus. Juventus last drew 1–1 with Cagliari in Matchday 6 of Serie A. The hosts took the lead through Maldini in the 20th minute, and Randal Kolo Muani equalised in the 81st minute.
A cup tie from 26 years ago
Celta and Juventus have already met in the UEFA Cup, around 26 years ago. In the second leg Celta won 4–0 at home and went through thanks to a 4–1 win on aggregate. It is the only earlier meeting that appears in our materials. In that previous meeting the team from Vigo came out on top, and on their own pitch.
Recovery and the history of similar matches
Both teams have 4 days since their previous match: Celta played in La Liga, Juventus in Serie A. The rest is therefore identical. In 7058 matches across all leagues in which the gap in strength between the teams was similar, the home side won 42%, the draw came in 27%, and the away side won 31%. At least 3 goals were scored in 51% of those matches. That is how such matches ended in the past.
Absentee list on both sides
Juventus will travel to Vigo without Kenan Yıldız, Jeff Ekhator, Arkadiusz Milik and Kamil Grabara. Khéphren Thuram and Manuel Locatelli are out of the squad, and Edon Zhegrova has not been registered for European competition. On Celta's side, Carl Starfelt, Miguel Román and Jones El-Abdellaoui are missing. Borja Iglesias will not play because of a calf injury, and Pablo Durán has a calf problem that does not seem serious.
Giráldez on an even match
Celta coach Claudio Giráldez thinks the match against Juventus will be an even one, but that his team have the means to win it. Celta go into this game with no points in the Europa League, Juventus with a perfect points tally at the top of the table.
