FACTS: Celta Vigo are undefeated in their last 13 matches in La Liga but their visitors haven't been beaten in their previous 18 league encounters.
14.45
Another home victory this afternoon and the unbeaten Celta Vigo will top the La Liga table. They have surprised everyone this season and stunned Barcelona last month when an Iago Aspas double helped them to a 4-1 victory over the European champions. Real Madrid have been rather unconvincing in the league so far this season and will need to improve if they are to get a result at Estadio Balaídos today.

RC Celta
The hosts are this season’s surprise package so far and a win this afternoon would take them to the top of the table. They even destroyed Barcelona last month. The dangerous Nolito has played a huge part in their success, ramping up six goals, and he features in attack today alongside Iago Aspas and Fabian Orellana.
14.30
Real Madrid
Luka Modric returns to Real Madrid’s starting line-up in place of Isco. Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema remain on the sidelines so a front three of Lucas Vazquez, Jese Rodriguez and Cristiano Ronaldo leads the attack today. Sergio Ramos has recently returned from injury and starts in defence.
