Celta only just managed to stay up last year thanks to a narrow victory over Espanyol on the last day, and the two sides met again on the opening weekend of the new season, honours shared this time in a 2-2 draw. Luis Enrique's side went two up with goals either side of half time by Alex López and Charles, both from Krohn-Dehli assists. Víctor Sánchez got one back for the visitors after a good run by Sergio García, but only a string of saves by Casilla kept out Krohn-Dehli, Augusto and Rafinha after that. With a quarter of an hour to go though substitute Thievy picked up a Javi López through ball on a quick counter-attack to level the scores, and Casilla produced the stop of the night near the end from Cabral's header to save a point for the Catalans.
