Celta Vigo v Real Madrid Betting Preview – La Liga 17th May 8.00pm
Real Madrid just needs four points from their last two league games now to secure the title in Spain. This is their game in hand over leaders Barcelona and victory in it would see Real Madrid move three points clear of their rivals at the top heading into the final round of action. Barcelona holds a vastly superior goal difference so would need Madrid to slip up somewhere. It’s not likely going to happen in his one against a Celta Vigo side who have lost their last five on the bounce.

Celta Vigo v Real Madrid La Liga Betting Tips
Real Madrid will pretty much be at the finish line with a win in this one on Wednesday night. They have won their last four league games now and saw off a tricky opponent in Sevilla 4-1 on the weekend. Four points from their last two league games this season then will do it for Real. Real Madrid have gone W13 D2 L2 at home this season in La Liga and they have won their last seven games out on the road in the league too. Madrid though have kept just the one clean sheet in those seven away games though and both teams to score at bet365 is a quote of 8/15. Both teams have scored in each of the last six clashes between the two clubs in all competitions, so there is a trend there. Real Madrid landed a 2-1 home win over Celta Vigo back near the start of the season and they are on a five-match winning streak against them as well.
In a stunning scoring record, Real Madrid have scored in each and every one of their league games this season and Cristiano Ronaldo is 21/10 bet365 First Goalscorer favourite. Real Madrid are actually the first team ever to score in 62 consecutive all competition matches in the top five European leagues. Cristiano Ronaldo has scored in nine of his 11 appearances against Celta in all competitions (18 goals), plus the Portugal star has scored in each of his last five games at Celta Vigo as well in all competitions. They haven’t looked like slipping up recently in their league run-in. In the bet365 correct score market, a Real Madrid 3-1 result returns a price of 9/1 on the game. Real Madrid did lose 4-3 on aggregate against Celta Vigo in this season’s Copa del Rey and actually, Celta Vigo are the only side to have beaten both Barcelona and Real Madrid this season (all competitions).
Celta aren’t exactly carrying the kind of form that would suggest that they can pull off an upset. They have lost their last five league games in a row now and at Balaidos, the Galician team have only won one of their last nine league clashes with Real Madrid, 2-0 in May 2014 (L8). Celta Vigo are situated down in the bottom half of the league table and have gone D1 L5 in their last six league games played and have won just one of their last nine. So they have had a pretty poor second half of the league season. Iago Aspas has scored 18 league goals in 2016/17, the best return for a Celta player in a La Liga season since 1955/56 (23) and he is an 8/5 option in the bet365 anytime goalscorer market. You could expect them to concede against Real Madrid of course, but can they pose enough of a threat from limited chances of getting forward against them? Barcelona will be hoping that they can.

Celta Vigo v Real Madrid La Liga Predictions
