After losing the cup final, Real Madrid now needs to chase the first place in La Liga. They are four points behind and need victories until the end, hoping for mistakes from Barcelona. Real has not been very convincing lately, but still managed to win in the last three rounds, all with a 1:0 score. This is not typical for the team, which has mainly played high-scoring matches throughout the season, and the defense has often been lacking. Carlo Ancelotti will leave the club at the end of the season and needs to do everything possible to make a dignified exit.
Celta, however, is a tricky opponent, despite having lost 9 consecutive matches to Real Madrid in La Liga. In 9 of the last 11 rounds, Celta has not lost, and in their last visit, they lost 3:4 to Barcelona after a penalty goal in added time. There have been no shortage of high-scoring matches involving Celta, who drew 2:2 in regular time in January during their visit to Real in the cup tournament. They are currently fighting for a place in Europe, occupying the seventh position in the standings.
Prediction: Real to win with both teams scoring, +1.5 Asian Handicap for CeltaReal has no choice but to win every match until the end of the season. However, their recent victories have not been convincing and have all been with a one-goal difference. I believe it is possible for both teams to score in this away match.
