Real Madrid hosts Celta Vigo in round 24 of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Sunday, February 16th at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu (Madrid)
Real Madrid seems to be getting out of hibernation. The Whites not only managed to win the Spanish Super Cup but also to head the standings in the Spanish LaLiga. The men of Zinedine Zidane have 52 points, which is three more than that of Barcelona. I would also like to note the serious progress of Thibaut Courtois, who was the reason for jokes. Eden Hazard continues to recover, but he has not yet approved himself in Madrid. Galacticos have not lost at home this season if we speak about the national championship: 8 wins and 3 draws (+16).

Celta still got out of the relegation zone, having outranked Mallorca by two points. The Celts surprised many people, having beaten Sevilla in the last home round with a score of 2-1. Of course, it’s a little strange to see the Galician team in this situation if we look at its squad, especially at the attacking line. The huge problem of the visitors is that they play terribly on the road, where they gained only one victory, tied three times and lost seven times (-10). As for losses, the main defender, Hugo Malo, who got too many yellow cards, will miss this meeting.
I think Zidane won’t do any rotation and will field the regular players. Real Madrid has a little less than two weeks to the match against Manchester City in the Champions League, and such a rival as Celta is a great chance for organizing the first eleven. And the gap in the standings is too small to relax. Concerning the Celts, it is very difficult to say what they will be able to oppose the Whites in Madrid. I think the hosts will score at least two goals, as they did in the last five head-to-head matches.
Prediction for the match: Real Madrid to score over 2.0 goals
