Last matches
The most recent match between Celta de Vigo and Granada CF, was sealed with a goalless draw, last January 31 of this year in the 21st matchday of the 2020-21 season.

Robert Moreno (Granada's Coach) statements
"I see the team well, really united, it gives me a lot of confidence. We are trying to hold on to the spirit of the Camp Nou and eliminate those five minutes that have robbed us of victories. The way to do that is to be all together, club and fans."
"Celta have lost all three home games, but they didn't deserve to lose. They are a team that plays in a very particular way, making it very difficult to defend against them. We have it clear, we know what we have to do, we will try to achieve the victory knowing that it will be very difficult."
"I would talk about the collective. Iago Aspas is Celta's differential player, but players like Mina or Nolito are doing very well, they have a very talented squad, we have to be united, united in the match, in training and with the fans, that's what we have to do, be together and try to pull it off together, it's the only way."
"It's what we have to do [The calendar at the start of the season against the big teams], but after Sevilla and Atlético we will have faced the top eight and there is a risk. In the first division there is a high level and fighting with those teams leads you to situations like the one we're in, but we shouldn't look for an excuse, that doesn't justify this situation, but right now there is only Celta."
Eduardo Coudet (Celta's Coach) statements
"We will have to adapt to how it happens. Granada has a very good squad, many virtues, great players, of great hierarchy. We will try to concentrate, do things well and focus on what we can generate ourselves. We can't get distracted from what we have to do well and generate".
"I am focused on my players, on getting them to arrive in the best way. It did us a lot of good to get the victory, we needed it. Now our ambition is to give joy to our people at home, it would be to free ourselves from that debt we have. We would be very happy. We did not deserve to suffer so much or wait so long for a victory, in many games we deserved the three points. We have been competitive in every game except the Osasuna game, but we still have a lot to give".
Celta, with two absentees due to injury
Due to injury, Neyder Lozano and Yan Eteki are the only absentees from the red and white squad for this match. The rest of the team is in good shape.
