Real Madrid and Celta Vigo are set to lock horns at Santiago Bernabéu in the Copa del Rey on Thursday. The two sides meet in the round of 16 with Real Madrid tipped to book their spot in the next round. Here's our match prediction.
Real Madrid come into this match slumped in deep dejection following a crushing 5-2 defeat against bitter rivals Barcelona in the Super Cup final.
Los Blancos now return at home, where they are set to play three straight home matches to make up for the aforementioned humiliation. This is the same venue that sees them on a three-match winning streak with ten goals scored during this run.
Carlo Ancelotti's men booked their spot in the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey thanks to a commanding 5-0 away win against fourth-tier Deportivo Minera.
Celta Vigo's period of excitement was short-lived as they lost 2-1 on the road against Rayo Vallecano in the league on Friday.
That result ended a two-match winning streak across all competitions and will be eyeing a return to winning ways here.
One of those wins came against second-tier Racing Santander in the Copa del Rey round of 32 winning 3-2 on the road. Before this, Los Celestes scored 12 goals in wins against UD San Pedro (1-5) and Salamanca UDS (0-7).

Our Real Madrid vs Celta Vigo Prediction
Real Madrid's credentials are on the line after a devastating loss against Barcelona. However, with home advantage, perhaps they may be able to reignite their confidence. They have been impressive in front of their home crowd this season with ten wins in their last 12 competitive games.
Meanwhile, Celta Vigo has been scoring goals for fun and should have no trouble putting one past Real Madrid's fragile defense. However, we doubt that will be enough to escape defeat, as they have lost nine consecutive matches in this fixture. Our Real Madrid v Celta Vigo prediction is: Both teams to score.
