Celta Vigo vs Real Madrid LIVE: Lineups and latest updates - LaLiga 24/25

Good evening everybody and welcome to another MARCA in English live blog, this time taking you through the LaLiga clash between Celta Vigo and Real Madrid from Balaidos.

Celta, currently sitting ninth in the table with 13 points, have had a strong start to the season under Claudio Giraldez, who was promoted from the club's B team last season. The 36-year-old has impressed enough to earn a new three-year contract during the international break.

In contrast, Real Madrid's veteran manager Carlo Ancelotti will mark his 200th La Liga match in charge of the club. Los Blancos are second in the table, just three points behind Barcelona, and are eager to close the gap. Despite their solid position, Real Madrid have struggled on the road, with just one win from four away matches this season.

Celta have been strong at home, earning 10 points from their five matches, but they face a tough challenge against Madrid. The Sky Blues have lost their last eight league games against Real, with their last victory over the Spanish giants more than a decade ago.

Real Madrid come into this match after a 2-0 win over Villarreal, though questions remain about their consistency. Star players like Kylian Mbappe, who has netted five goals this season, and Vinicius Junior, who has three, will be key for Ancelotti's side.
