Celta Vigo: +350Draw: +300Real Madrid: -155

Moneyline pick: Real Madrid -155

While the scoreline doesn’t necessarily show it, Madrid dominated in their season opener as they logged 29 shots with 15 on target, while controlling 68% of possession against Almeria. They were able to get two of those shots in the back of the net courtesy of Lucas Vazquez and David Alaba in the second half after going down 1-0 early in the match.

Celta thought they had a win in the bag in their first match against Espanyol after taking a 2-0 lead thanks to goals from Iago Aspas and Goncalo Paciencia. Edu Exposito pulled one back for Espanyol in the 72nd minute, while a penalty in the dying moments of the game converted by Joselu salvaged a point for the opponents.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side will look to replicate their performance on both ends of the pitch, but they’ll hope to put a couple more in the net as they look to cruise to their second straight win. Back Real Madrid to get the win over Celta here, despite being on the road.
