Celta de Vigo vs. Real Madrid: preview
Without Casemiro, the Madrid team continues the starting defense. The Brazilian midfielder has already expressed his desire to leave. Thus, the Merengues must accept Manchester United's proposal, which will benefit everyone from an economic point of view. Meanwhile, from a sporting perspective, Carlo Ancelotti must find solutions and that will hasten Aurelien Tchouaméin's adaptation.
In fact, the French midfielder made his debut in the victory against Almeria, but it was clear that he needs more minutes to fill Casemiro's shoes. Apart from that, the Real Madrid coach must start Luka Modric. Without Toni Kroos, there are several candidates to enter the midfield: Eduardo Camavinga, Dani Ceballos, or Federico Valverde, a few steps back.
On the other hand, Celta de Vigo lost two points in the closing stages of the match against Espanyol. Oscar Mingueza committed a penalty that resulted in the equalizer for the visitors. With that frustration, coach Eduardo Coudet is preparing changes, and the novelty would be the inclusion of Peruvian Renato Tapia and Fran Beltran would move forward. In attack, Iago Aspas hopes to continue his fine form.
