Celta Vigo vs Real Madrid Match Preview
Real Madrid have seen another busy summer as Zinedine Zidane looks to complete an outfit ready to battle for titles across competitions, finally opening La Liga campaign on Saturday with a trip to Vigo. They have been quite unpredictable and this has seen early criticism too, which makes a strong start a crucial task.
Los Blancos have seen losses to Atletico Madrid (3-7), Tottenham (0-1), and Roma (on penalties after a 2-2 draw) in five outings since late July, where their inconsistency at the back feels like an obvious problem.
They have beaten Fenerbahce (5-3) and Salzburg (0-1) along the way and will now be desperate to build on such performances up front.
Celta have, on the other hand, seen two narrow losses late in their pre-season campaign and now have to recuperate despite no stakes involved aside from gaining match fitness, beaten by Tenerife (0-1) and Lazio (1-2).
