As the defending Champions of Laliga, it is expected that Real Madrid would show dominance when they play against lesser team and even though they're the away team I don't expect Celta Vigo to defeat Madrid even with a home advantage but I think they tried their best despite Real Madrid bring dominate they still showed resistance to an extent and missed few chances too I was even suprised that they scored Madrid and even made attempts to equalize it 2-2, to be honest Real Madrid were lucky cause if Celta Vigo had converted that counter attack at the late minute then Real Madrid won't had celebrated the full 3 points. That alone is enough reason for fans to be disappointed though they won the match but they felt their team is more dominant and shouldn't be giving their opponents such chances that could've cause them to draw, they feel Real Madrid are capable of keeping clean sheets but they should understand that other teams are gradually developing better moreover Celta Vigo is not just any team to underestimate, well im happy they won cause of my likeness for Jude Bellingham and few other players.

Regarding team performance, I think Real Madrid is superior to other teams in La Liga. It's just that Real Madrid is less fortunate in the goal statistics of its attackers even though they have so many opportunities in each match. Kylian Mbappe is a good center forward if he gets more support from other players, but so far he seems to have difficulty finishing in several matches. But over time Mbappe began to prove his quality and today he has scored the opening goal for Real Madrid.

I don't know why some Real Madrid fans feel disappointed with the team's performance so far. Basically, Real Madrid has a good performance and is only 3 points behind Barcelona. But I know, all fans definitely hope that Real Madrid never loses points in every match and beats its opponents with a big score. This hope is not always possible, but Real Madrid could have matches with a high goal ratio.

Ah, almost 2-2, but luckily the kick missed.

It's nice to see Mbappe scoring goals and contributing to the team. Real Madrid has been one of my biggest disappointments this year, I still find it strange that they are performing so poorly despite having such a strong squad.
It's nice that Mbappe is at least overcoming his problems in terms of scoring goals. They are starting to play better every day, I'm happy about that

Real Madrid weakness in defense is already obvious in the game and Celta Vigo have already identified that already, and they are trying to use that opportunity to get more goals on Real Madrid, which we all know that it might be difficult for them now. Although Real Madrid have gotten their second goal, which I know I Real Madrid will just maintain a good defense till the end of the game or they will add more goals. But the best fact is that Real Madrid will never lose on Celta Vigo that is just the fact.

So all what I will say is, it let continue and see how the game will end because is almost time to the end of the game if Celta Vigo will make any attempt of scoring a goal.

Ancelotti has experimented again in determining his starting XI, in an effort to overcome the defensive player crisis, the formation he used in the match against Celta Vigo looks very different from usual. So far, Real Madrid has managed to lead 2-1, indicating that Ancelotti experiment has the potential to succeed. The match has been going on for more than 70 minutes, and it seems that Celta Vigo will not be able to make the match end in a draw.

Celta Vigo 1 Real Madrid 1.

Yes, that's just a temporary score for now. Real Madrid dominated the match with all the ability and quality of their players, but Celta Vigo, who was playing at home, finally managed to find a gap in the defense to score the equalizer. The match is still ongoing and both teams have time to score additional goals, there is at least 30 more minutes of time for both.

Celta Vigo increased the pressure in the second half and they managed to exploit Real Madrid's weaknesses in defense. There was so much empty space in Madrid's defense in this match when Celta Vigo built attacks, so Ancelotti had to find a solution if he didn't want to concede additional goals to the home team.

The goal was a beautiful strike from Mbappe outside the box, I hope he can even add more, even in the present of the rape allegation he did well there.

The game is now 1-1, with Celta Vigo equalizing in the 51st minutes, though the match is still in the 55+ minutes, I hope Real Madrid can score more though Celta Vigo are not slacking off, they have being doing well to compete with Real Madrid until now but let's see if they can hold till the match ending.

It's a good thing that he changed formation in this game, some teams are beginning to get used to his normal, and since Mbappe came into play,  Ancelotti has been experimenting on a formation that best suits Real Madrid and this frontline players in order to get maximum results out of his games, and if this formation works out well in two-three different games fixtures, he may be forced to option into using the 3-4-2-1 formation.

Yeah Real Madrid have made a good start. Nice one for my Real Madrid to win bet.     However I'm going to wait for even more...

What do you say for BTTS? Celta don't seem too bad. They are also trying hard for scoring a goal. I hope they find it quick though.

I think Real Madrid would win anyway even if the score gets equalized. They will need to drop the loss of points to minimum to keep up with Barcelona.

The match between Celta Vigo vs Real Madrid have already begin and currently at 20 minutes of first half and recently i have been checked Real Madrid starting lineup for this match and it's quite interesting to see because Ancelotti used different formation because he was used 3-4-2-1 which this formation is very rare to be used by Ancelotti but i can understand why Ancelotti used different strategy because Real Madrid is facing injured storm so Ancelotti should be maximized the potention of the current players

Mbappe is still trusted by Ancelotti and he was playing since the beginning of match but currently his position as centre striker this is quite different because usually he was playing together with Vinicius or Rodrygo and i have seen Ancelotti did a rotation but because some of players has just return from international break so i assume why Ancelotti putting some of important players into the bench because he want to ensure all of the players in the good fitness

The current scores is 1-0 for Real Madrid and before the match begin i have already to bets 1x2 for Real Madrid in this match because although the condition of Real Madrid squad is not so good but they still have good chances to be the winner of this match because on the paper Celta Vigo is not strong opponent for Real Madrid and hopefully they can added more goals in the second half

The match went very competitive between the two, Alaves and Valladolid, seeing Alaves' matches they got a very good game, one goal was wasted because of offside and it made a blow in the 51st minute, and if it wasn't offside it could end in a draw in this match, Valladolid got luck because he had two opportunities to take a penalty kick, but what impressed me was Garcia Martinez's kick from outside the penalty that could stab K. Hein, it was very perfect to the corner of the goal he was guarding.
Espanyol and Bilbao matches I didn't pay attention to him, but indeed Bilbao was very great.

In this match I bet for Alaves and yes, the result was a loss but even so, at least Alaves still managed to make a quick goal in the 6th minute although indeed, in the end the result was still a loss for Alaves. At least  enough to make me disappointed because anyway, Alaves has a good head to head record  against Valladolid and yes, I think Valladolid at this  moment will not be easy to get out of the relegation zone and moreover Valladolid also plays away. But in reality,my prediction was wrong and I also accept the result of this defeat because I was also just trying my luck, not expecting too much  in this match.

Real Madrid is playing from away their performance tonight will determine if they will get 3 points against Celta Vigo to close the gap between them and the league leaders Barcelona before moving to play their game in the champions league. Real Madrid should get the win looking at the squad in the game but since they have not been consistent in the league it will take them to perform better than the home team who may not make the match easy for them. Concerning your take on the Barcelona vs Sevilla game, football is still full of surprises you can not be sure if Barcelona will play draw against Sevilla tomorrow if Real Madrid wins tonight because Sevilla has not been in good form this season to be able to withstand Barcelona to secure a draw.

Alaves suffered a surprise defeat at home and left the field defeated. They lost the match 3-2 and caused the opposing team to take two penalties and conceded two goals from penalties, disrupting the team's balance. They also scored a second goal in the last minutes but were unable to score an equalizer, leaving the match defeated. I think this was one of the most surprising scores this week so far. It was a vital victory for Valladolid. These three points will be very useful for them to get out of the lower ranks.

Carlo Ancelotti opted for the 4-4-2 formation because he's definitely going to allow Jude Bellingham to play in more attacking role that when three attackers are playing. Real Madrid will have three players upfront when they're attacking with Bellingham joining Vinicius Jr and Kylian Mbappe while they'll be switching to four midfield players when they're defending with same Bellingham joining Camavinga, Federico Valverde and Aurelien Tchoumeni. This in my opinion is a good tactical formation from the Italian manager and I think it'll pay off at the end. With Dani Carvajal injured, there's no other better player to play in the right back position than Lucas Vasquez so I'm not surprised that he started. I've already staked a Real Madrid win and I think it'll pay off

I don’t know why Ancelotti is using this formation for this game but it looks like he knows what he’s doing and will do everything to win this game at all cost. When I saw the formation and the starting line up of this game, I thought lt Rodrygo was out injured or not fit for this match but I can see him amongst the substitute players. The match have just began and all odds are on Real Madrid to win the match. I don’t see them having any problem in their games even though they are facing some injury crisis. I still believe they can win this match and also get the full possession in this match far ahead of Celta Vigo. The match has just began, let’s wait to see what each team has to offer in this match tonight.

Pay attention to their line up and any formation approaches that can be changed during the match. Ancelotti can change the strategy and formation of his players for this match and 4-4-2 will not be the standard formation throughout the match. A 4-3-1-2 could also be used where Bellingham would play as an attacking midfielder, but it depends on how effective their main formation is today.

Real Madrid's victory in this match can be expected and they will really try to win it instead of dropping points. Mbappe and Vinicius should be the two best tandems up front and they are expected to score goals to win the match. Lucas Vasquez got a chance in this match as a right back, he replaced the injured Carvajal. Anyway, enjoy watching.

Real Madrid must win tonight because Barcelona will most likely draw tomorrow's game because Sevilla is trying and I am confident they can do anything to stop them. Ancelotti should do everything possible to win against Celta Vigo so that when they face Barcelona, they will perform well and win the game, because I know Madrid will not play at home and have not lost this season. Let's see how the game ends tonight, but Madrid is the favorite to win the match, but because Celta Vigo is playing at home, they will do their best to defend the match because they cannot defeat Madrid and will only play and draw with them. And Real Madrid need this match seriously because if they make a mistake and lose against Celta Vigo Barcelona will lead them with 6 point if they probably defeat Sevilla tomorrow, let see how the game will end against Celta Vigo.

If Erik Ten Hag has ANY credit left in Manchester United, he would love to get Frenkie De Jong, he made that public and wouldn't be a terrible transfer for United neither, dude is a good player and he is still young as well so they can use him well after Erik is fired. However, I do not think Erik has any credits left in the team, dude has been horrible for all season and he is on the verge of being fired right now, I believe the team wouldn't want to spend any money on a player the manager who is about to get fired would want.

Plus, they do not have to make a deal now, the transfer window is still a few months away, in theory they can sign a deal with Barcelona to get the player on transfer window, but they don't have to, they can do that when the time comes. Which means, they can wait until transfer window opens and see if Erik Ten Hag is still managing the club or not, maybe by that time he would be fired and someone else would replace him? We don't know.

The second half match between Girona and Real Sociedad was quite interesting. In the first half through a goal from M. Oyarzabal in the 44th minute, Real Sociedad. So for the time being Real Sociedad is 1-0 ahead of Girona.

What was interesting in the second half of the match was that amidst Real Sociedad's dominance and attacks, Girona was able to withstand the attacks so that there were no additional goals. However, the match is still not over, so anything can still happen. Girona still has a chance to equalize even though this will be quite difficult. Or vice versa, where Real Sociedad will add a goal before the game ends to increase their lead, like what they did in the first half, where Real Sociedad scored a goal in the final minutes of the match and this is very possible, because Real Sociedad quite dominated the game and continued launched an attack on Girona.
