Celtic vs Real Madrid Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Daniel Ngulu | in Champions League Predictions
Celtic are coming from a big win, beating arch rivals Rangers 4-0 in the Scottish top flight. They go into an even tougher game, hosting Real Madrid in Group F on Match Day 1 of the UEFA Champions League. The win over Rangers was Celtic's fifth in five matches and they have been free scoring but that will get a stern test here. Real Madrid have had a fine start to the season as well and they will hope for the same as they start the defense of their title. The 2-1 win over a hard-fighting Real Betis marked Real Madrid's fifth win in five games.

Celtic - Real Madrid: Form Analysis
Celtic are unbeaten this season; they have seven straight wins ahead of this game, though there isn't a team they've played that matches the strength of Real Madrid. The Scottish giants have been on a great scoring run, netting two or more in each of those seven matches. This will be their most important attribute going into this game. Real Madrid haven't kept a clean sheet in their last four matches and this is a concern going into this game. They have however been comfortable in attack, though they had to dig deep in their last game, to beat Real Betis.

Our Celtic vs Real Madrid Prediction
Celtic have their morale up after the huge win over Rangers but this will be a different kind of game, a stronger opposition. The one thing they will want to take to this game is their good scoring form, and playing at home will be an advantage. Real Madrid have a good run too, and are coming off five wins in five. The difference is that they've conceded in each of the last four matches and this will be an aspect for Celtic to take note of. While Real Madrid will be favourites, we don't expect Celtic to be cowed, so go for both teams to score.
