Real Madrid welcomes Celtic on its home field in a match that can be said to have a slight imperative to win. Real is first in the group, but to stay that way after this round, they need a win tonight. In the event of a bad result, and Leipzig wins against Shakhtar, Real Madrid loses the first position and in this way went to the next stage as the second-placed team from its group. It is certainly not something that Real wants and what their fans are used to. They are visited by Celtic, who have absolutely no ambitions before this match. They are definitely the last in the group, and comparing the quality of these two teams is really impossible. After two rather bad results of Real Madrid in the last two games, the Madrid players will surely take this match as seriously as possible. They need one game that they will win by a big margin, and they could hardly have asked for a better rival than Celtic. That Celtic is much worse than Real could be seen in the first match in Scotland, in which Real won 3-0. I expect a similar, if not more convincing, result tonight. Benzema will be on the bench, but Vinicius, Rodrygo, Kroos, Valverde, Modric should be expected in the starting lineup, which in my opinion will be more than enough for tonight's rival. If only one of the aforementioned players has his day, Real Madrid will easily win this match in their favor, maybe even in the first half. Because of all the above, I am sure that Real Madrid can win this game with -1.5 asian handicap.
