Now, let’s take a closer look at some betting angles for Sunday’s La Liga fixture:
Real Madrid v Celta Vigo – Sunday, 1pm
- A heart-breaking 3-2 defeat to Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final last weekend has given Real Madrid just one more shot at claiming silverware this season but they still have it all to do, given they trail Barca in La Liga by four points prior to this weekends action.
- The good news for Real Madrid is they still have to play Barcelona next week so they are not out of it by any means but they need to make sure they go into that fixture within touching distance of their rivals, they can only do that by beating Celta Vigo on Sunday.
- Carlo Ancelotti’s side should be fairly confident of picking up all three points in this one, given they’ve beaten Celta on home soil in eleven of their last twelve La Liga meetings. (W11 D1).
——————————– - Celta very nearly did Real Madrid a favour by holding Barcelona to just one point, that was until they suffered heart-break themselves after a 98th minute penalty won the game for Barcelona, much to the frustration of Celta.
- The Sky Blues didn’t let it hold them back though, bouncing straight back with a impressive 3-0 victory over Villarreal in their last outing, a victory that move Claudio Giráldez’ side into the top seven and occupying a Europa League place with just five games to go.
- It’s a fixture that Celta have struggled with over the years, having not beaten Madrid in any of their last eighteen games across all competitions, they have just one win in their last twenty-four games against Los Blancos.
Prediction: Both Teams To Score & Real Madrid To Win, Real Madrid 3-1 Celta Vigo.
