Real Madrid vs Celta Vigo Prediction & Betting Tips (10 March)

Undisputed leader of this 2023-24 Liga, Real Madrid seems well on its way to recovering its crown as Spanish champion left in the hands of the Barcelona last season. The Merengue's 36th Liga title seems close but we will have to give one last push to get it since the players from the capital were not able to bring back the 3 points for the Mestalla against Valencia 2-2 during the week last, despite a last-second goal from Jude Bellingham which was disallowed since the final whistle had been blown just before Brahi's cross. Furthermore, this is the second time in succession that RMA has stumbled away 1-1 against Rayo Vallecano. Let us remember, however, that no one came to thwart the plans of the White House in its lair of the Bernabéu in all competitions and even less Sevilla FC who had no say in their recent 1-0 victory. This week, Casa Blanca had all the difficulty in the world to preserve its qualification for the quarter-finals of the Champions League against Leipzig. Victorious in the first leg 0-1, Carlo Ancelotti's men delivered a very average performance and even benefited from rather favorable refereeing to settle for a 1-1 draw against the Germans, synonymous with qualification.On the other next to the meadow, we find Celta Vigo who seem far from imagining a possible title of champion of Spain and who are above all content to save their skin within the elite.

17th, i.e. first non-relegation, the Celticos took 3 crucial points last weekend at home for the reception of Almeria 1-0 thus offering themselves a breath of fresh air of five points over Cadiz 18th. Note that before this victory, Iago Aspas and his teammates went to take the point of the draw on the lawn of Cadiz 2-2 but they can still harbor regrets after this meeting because they led by two goals to nothing until 'in the 66th minute of play...

Thinking of scoring the winning goal against Valencia, Bellingham (16 pawns in La Liga, top scorer in the championship) finally saw his goal refused by the end of the match whistled by the central referee and he did not manage to manage his emotions by going to challenge in an unregulated way. The Englishman was thus excluded and he will serve a two-match suspension (1/2). Note that the club appealed this decision. At the moment, the new jewel of world football will miss this poster and he will be installed in the stands next to Alaba (end of season), Courtois and Militao who will probably be back at the start of April according to Ancelotti. On the other hand, the Brazilians (9 goals, 4 assists in La Liga) and Rodrygo (8 goals, 5 assists) and the interesting Joselu (8 goals) will be available.

Opposite, the Galicians will probably be forced to travel without Joseph Aidoo ( injured Achilles tendon), Dotor (pubalgia), Ristic (rotation), Tapia (starter) and the two midfielders Miguel Rodriguez (muscle contusion) and Swedberg (3 goals in just 10 appearances in La Liga this season), all injured. Note that the captain, Iago Aspas (5 goals, 5 assists) will return to competition this evening. African champion with Ivory Coast, Bamba (ex-Lille) will be in the group like de la Torre (1 pawn, 4 pancakes in La Liga) or the Norwegian international Larsen (9 goals in the championship).
