The action in LaLiga is intense at the moment, with three teams battling it out for top spot in the league.
Real Madrid come into this match on a somber note. They suffer a heavy defeat against Barcelona in the final of the Spanish Super Cup. A team like Los Blancos cannot simply undo the 5-2 score as if it were just another match. Apart from that last match the team was in top form and had a great month of December.
Celta has had a mixed season. They have shown good football, but cannot shake off their inconsistencies. They lost their last match against Rayo Vallecano 2-1 after a good run of three unbeaten matches. If they want to beat Madrid, they need more consistency.
