Celta Vigo Team News
Celta Vigo played a draw in the last round of LaLiga against Real Sociedad with a score of 1-1. The home team took the lead in the 22nd minute of the match and held the advantage until the fourth minute of injury time when Oscar Mingueza equalized for his team.
In the first round, Celta lost to Osasuna with a score of 0-2, while in five preparatory matches, they recorded four victories and one defeat. In the previous season, they finished in 13th place on the table with 43 points, three more than Valladolid, which was relegated to a lower league.
Celta was without Gonçalo Paciencia and Carles Perez against Real Sociedad due to muscle problems, and the same situation will be the case for the match against Real Madrid on Friday. Coach Rafael Benitez was likely pleased with his team’s performance in the last match, so it wouldn’t be a surprise if the same lineup took the field for this match.
Carlos Dotor and Franco Cervi are probably the two players pushing the hardest to get into the team, but it might be the same lineup again, with Jorgen Strand Larsen likely to be chosen alongside Iago Aspas in the attack.

Real Madrid Team News
In their last competitive match, Real Madrid defeated Almeria with a score of 3-1. Although the home team took the lead in the third minute, Jude Bellingham equalized for his team just sixteen minutes later. In the 60th minute, the same player turned the result in favor of Real, with an assist from Toni Kroos. Vinicius Junior set the final score in the 73rd minute, this time assisted by Bellingham.
In the first round, Real Madrid also triumphed over Athletic Bilbao with a score of 2-0, while in four friendly matches, they achieved two wins and two losses. In the previous season, they finished in second place with 78 points, ten less than the first-placed Barcelona. In the Champions League, they were eliminated by Manchester City in the semifinals, with an overall score of 5-1.
Real Madrid will again be without Dani Ceballos, Ferland Mendy, Eder Militao, Thibaut Courtois, and Arda Guler for their third match of the season. Kepa Arrizabalaga did not enter the game against Almeria in the last match after his loan move from Chelsea, but it is expected that the Spaniard will be in the starting lineup for this match.
Coach Carlo Ancelotti will likely also bring back Eduardo Camavinga, who did not start the match against Almeria due to muscle overload, so Toni Kroos is likely to be the one to drop to the bench. Luka Modric will have to accept a reduced role this season, as the Croatian will likely be among the substitutes again, and Camavinga for Kroos is expected to be the only outfield change for this contest.
