We like Real Madrid to defeat Celta de Vigo on Saturday at 3:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Real Madrid will be expecting to stay undefeated in domestic play this Saturday. It was a bad defeat against Lille in UCL play to begin the month. They responded with a big win two Saturday's ago though at home against Villareal.

This week, Real Madrid plays on the road vs. Celta De Vigo. The Sky Blues will be without their main attacking threat in Iago Aspas today which is a real bummer for them.

Last year's European Champions are currently trying to hunt down Barcelona. Three points are necessary this week as they play Barca next weekend it what could make things interesting again.

Madrid have won eight straight games against the Sky Blues. This one should be no different.

The line could very well be higher for this game. Real Madrid dominates possession as well as the scoreboard this weekend.
