UEFA Champions League”Real Madrid v Paris Saint-Germain”

Real Madrid host Celta Vigo this Sunday in what will be Eden Hazard’s first game after recovering from the foot fracture he picked up against Paris Saint-Germain last November. While Hazard isn’t expected to start, he also needs as many minutes as Zidane can possibly find him so that the attacker regains his confidence and improves his condition ahead of the tough clash against Manchester City in the Champions League’s Round of 16.

Real Madrid predicted XI: Courtois, Carvajal, Varane, Ramos, Mendy, Casemiro, Kroos, Valverde, Vinicius, Bale, Benzema.

Celta Vigo predicted XI: Blanco; Vázquez, Araujo, Aidoo, Olaza; Beltrán, Okay, Rafinha; Aspas, Sisto, Smolov

Hazard will almost surely come off the bench to play the last 30 minutes or so. This match should be a good chance for Vinicius to keep proving that his confidence is back, given that he’s been one of Madrid’s most highlighted players lately. All in all, Madrid should get a comfortable win against Celta.
