Preview: Celta Vigo vs. Barcelona

La Liga leaders Barcelona are the clear favourites to pick up three points when they visit relegation-threatened Celta Vigo this weekend.

The Catalan club, who go into the game on a run of three straight victories, could potentially move 16 points clear of rivals Real Madrid with a win.

Celta Vigo currently lie second-bottom in the table, but are only three points away from 17th-placed Real Zaragoza with a superior goal difference.

However, their current form makes for a stark contrast to their opponents', with five defeats in their last six outings.

Barcelona saw off Celta Vigo 3-1 when the teams met in November.
