Akor Adams and Chidera Ejuke are expected to play key roles when Celta Vigo hosts Sevilla at the Estadio Abanca-Balaidos on Saturday evening, according to Afrik‑Foot.

The two Super Eagles forwards have contributed to Sevilla’s recovery from a difficult season, helping the club secure its La Liga status before the final matchday.

Celta Vigo sit sixth in the table with 51 points and need only a single victory to confirm their place in next season’s Europa League.

Sevilla arrive in Galicia with their survival already guaranteed, holding 43 points in 13th place. Their season had once threatened relegation, but they now have little beyond pride to play for.

Celta won the return fixture 1‑0, giving Sevilla a chance to settle the score.

In recent La Liga encounters, the two clubs have met 41 times, each winning 16 matches and drawing nine.

Across all competitions since their first meeting in 1929, they have played 108 times. Sevilla lead with 49 victories, Celta 39, and there have been 20 draws.

To secure their 40th win over Sevilla, Celta will rely on Borja Iglesias, the club’s top scorer with 14 league goals this season.

Sevilla also have a potent option in Akor Adams. After representing Nigeria at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, the former Montpellier striker has scored 10 league goals for Sevilla. He aims to add to that tally and become Nigeria’s top scorer in Europe’s top‑five leagues this season.

Kick‑off is scheduled for 20:00 WAT at the Estadio Abanca‑Balaidos.
