Preview: Celta Vigo vs. Barcelona

Sports Mole previews La Liga leaders Barcelona's visit to Celta Vigo.

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.
