“Galactic” duel for Ionuț Radu
Tonight's duel promises to be a very interesting one. Celta Vigo, today's hosts, are in high spirits after 4 consecutive victories in all competitions. In the La Liga standings, the team occupies 6th place, with 40 points obtained in 26 stages.
On the other hand, Real Madrid is going through a difficult period in the championship. Alvaro Arbeloa's “Galacticos” come after 2 consecutive defeats in La Liga, 1-2 at Osasuna's ground, respectively 0-1 with Getafe, right at the Bernabeu. Poor form has seen the team slow down in their pursuit of leaders Barcelona, who are 4 points above the Madrid side.
Los Blancos will approach today's match without one of their most important players, Kylian Mbappe. The Frenchman suffered a minor ligament injury, so he will not be present in the duel with Ionuț Radu.
On the European level, both teams are doing great. Celta Vigo qualified for the Europa League 'round of 16', while Real Madrid qualified for the Champions League 'round of 16'.
Alvaro Arbeloa, the interim coach of the “Galacticos”, prefaced the duel with the Romanian goalkeeper's team.
I think I repeat myself many times every time you ask me this question, given the opponents I have faced in the last few weeks. It won't be an easy away game. We are facing a great team and a coach who is doing a wonderful job.
It's a very well-coached team that's playing with a lot of confidence and I think they're coming off a four-game winning streak. And they play very good football. Balaidos is a ground where there is always a great atmosphere whenever Real Madrid go there. Well, it's another very difficult, very demanding away game.
