LaLiga action is currently intense, with three teams vying for the top spot in the competition.
Real Madrid comes to this game in low spirits. They suffer a heavy loss against Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final. A team like Los Blancos cannot easily overturn the 5-2 scoreline as if it were just another match. Aside from that last game, the team was in great form and had a great month of December.
Celta has had a mixed season. They have shown some good football but can’t shake their inconsistencies either. They lost their last game against Rayo Vallecano 2-1 after having had a good run of three games unbeaten. If they want to beat Madrid, they need more consistency.
