LiontipsCelta vs Real Madrid. Forecast (odds 4.75) and bets on the match of the Spanish championship
Command Analysis
Current form
Celta may feel the international break has come at an inopportune time as they have been building momentum after a poor run in La Liga as August turned to September. But there is no easing their path back to action against reigning champions Real Madrid, a team they have not beaten since January 2017, losing all eight of their last head-to-head encounters.
If the https://rccelta.es target=_blank rel=noopener>Celts are to win, they will likely do so here, having lost only one of their last 11 home league games, although, ominously, the team that beat them (Atletico Madrid) was also from the capital. Their task has not been made any easier by their failed appeals for red cards to Ilaix Moriba and Iago Aspas against Las Palmas.
Disqualifications and injuries
De la Tore (injury), Jailson (thigh injury), Moriba (red card) and Aspas (red card) will be out.
Interesting trends for betting
- Celta Borja Iglesias returned to form against Las Palmas, scoring his fourth goal of the season
It is worth noting that Iglesias managed to score all of his goals in the first half of the game.
- Celta have lost their last eight head-to-head matches against Real Madrid
Moreover, the last time the “heavenly ones” managed to celebrate victory in head-to-head confrontations was back in 2017.
Estimated line-up : Villar - Manquillo, Mingueza, Sverberg, Dominguez - Duran, Beltran, Sotelo, Rodriguez - Carrera, Iglesias.
Current form
Real will also have some high-profile players missing, with Dani Carvajal the latest to join the absentees after suffering a knee injury in the 2-0 win at Villarreal that brutally ended his season. However, their injury concerns are fading as Carlo Ancelotti’s side battle to reduce Barcelona’s three-point lead at the top of the table before the leaders meet in El Clasico next weekend.
The 1-1 draw with Atletico was Los Blancos' 19th consecutive away game in La Liga without defeat, although four of their last five have been draws and the last three have ended 1-1. A trip to Galicia could be the tonic they need to end that run and keep the pressure on Barcelona, as they have won their last six league games here, scoring an average of 2.83 goals per game.
Disqualifications and injuries
Alaba (knee injury), Carvajal (knee injury) and Diaz (thigh injury) are out.
Interesting trends for betting
- Real Madrid Jude Bellingham will look to continue his performance after scoring for England against Greece
It may be recalled that the corresponding match last season ended in victory for the “creamy ones” and Bellingham scored the winning goal after Rodrigo failed to convert the 11-meter kick
- Real Madrid have not lost away games in 19 matches in a row
In this series, it is worth noting that the “whites” have drawn four of their last five away games, and three of these encounters ended with an unusual score of 1:1 for the team.
Probable line-up : Lunin - Modric, Rudiger, Militao, Mendy - Tchouameni, Valverde, Bellingham, Rodrygo - Mbappe, Vinicius.

1.27Tip and bets
Today, the guests will try to take control of the game from the first minutes, because another draw or defeat will give Barcelona additional motivation on Sunday. Most likely, due to the class and support of the fans, of which the "creamy" have enough in any city, the current Champions League champion will be able to achieve a confident victory and take away the important three points.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1) on Real Madrid and we bet on it with odds of 2.10
Bet on the outcome
Today the guests are the favorites - Real Madrid is two heads stronger in terms of the lineup and level of players in all areas and is capable of taking full control of the game in all areas of the football field. Nevertheless, we believe that there will be no rout, but serious losses for the Celts will leave them no chance of success, except that Vigo will be able to avoid a shameful rout.
Prediction: Real Madrid win by two goals for 4.75
Bet on a red card
The hosts can compensate for their lack of technique and speed with foul tactics, which will ultimately help and bring an abundance of violations. In addition, red cards were shown in three of the last seven head-to-head matches.
Prediction - Red Card (Yes). This option can be found for 3.95
