Athletic Club sink Celta Vigo with early double
Athletic Club moved to a 2-0 victory over Celta Vigo in a La Liga Regular Season - 3 fixture, with both goals arriving inside three second-half... in fact first-half minutes to settle matters early. The scoreline stood at half-time and remained unchanged through the second period, condemning Celta to a fourth defeat in five outings.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Álex Berenguer opened the scoring in the 20th minute, finishing off an assist from Iñaki Williams to put the visitors ahead. Two minutes later Robert Navarro doubled the advantage, converting a chance created by Ruíz de Galarreta to make it 0-2. Celta were unable to respond before the interval and could not find a way back into the contest thereafter.
Athletic Club dominated the underlying numbers despite having less of the ball, registering 17 shots to Celta's eight and forcing seven saves compared to just two from Celta's goalkeeper. Celta finished with 54% possession but could not translate that control into clear openings, while Athletic also picked up three yellow cards to none for the hosts.
Berenguer scored the opening goal and earned the joint-highest rating of the match at 8.3, alongside Celta goalkeeper Ionuț Radu, who kept his side in contention with a string of saves despite the heavy defeat.
Athletic Club's 17 shots to Celta Vigo's eight underlined how much more clinical and direct the visitors were in front of goal.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Celta Vigo 51%, the draw 28%, Athletic Club 21%. It finished Celta Vigo 0–2 Athletic Club.
Celta Vigo's rating edge, but the draw is in play — Celta Vigo are a shade stronger on our strength rating, and La Liga home advantage on top gives Celta Vigo the lean. The draw at 28% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Celta Vigo at 51%?
Celta Vigo sit 71 points higher on our strength rating — 1845 to 1774. Sides with a 50–100-point rating edge at home won 50.6% of 10,398 such games. La Liga home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to away wins (28.3% vs 30.2%). La Liga homes won 46.7% of 6,105 games vs 44.9% across all 99,542 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 51%?
Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Celta Vigo's column. Across 10,823 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.0 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Athletic Club win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.8 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 24,926. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
