Celta Vigo vs Eibar preview - Berizzo: Celta can get back winning

Posted Saturday, November 29, 2014 by PA

Celta coach Eduardo Berizzo is certain his side can return to winning ways when they entertain Eibar on Saturday.

A defeat at Rayo Vallecano followed a disappointing home draw against Granada, with Celta drawing blanks in both games.

But, with a good start to the season leaving them seventh in the Primera Division, Berizzo insists there are minor details, rather than deep-rooted issues, that need to be addressed.

"We must regain movement of the ball against Granada, it was slow and insufficient against Rayo," he told La Voz de Galicia.

"But it is not a concern. The most worrying thing would be if we didn't create opportunities annd that is not the case. Eibar have a well-structured, defence team and when they have possession they can attack at pace."

Newly-promoted Eibar have lost their last two, including a 4-0 home mauling at the hands of Real Madrid last time out.

They have won three league games so far this season, with two of them coming away from home and, like Berizzo, Eibar coach Gaizka Garitano has identified what has caused their moderate points haul.

"The lack of firepower is what we need to improve," he told the club's website.

"We must improve, as all teams must, but we must also stick with things as well. We are looking forward to scoring in Vigo.

"In the last few games we have conceded too many goals, but we must also take into account the opposition - Barcelona and Real Madrid will greatly increase the number (of goals conceded)."

"It is true that we have made bad decisions in recent games. We do not usually get many chances. When I analyze the goals, I see that we are not having any luck.

"We need to defend forcefully, be more practical, that we have always done well. I want to make clear - we have to fit less goals, of course.The difficulty of First Division is seen from the first minute...but I see that we are prepared. I'm optimistic,"
