Real Madrid continue their charge towards the La Liga title when they take on Rafa Benitez's Celta Vigo on Sunday evening.
Carlo Ancelotti was quick to slander his side's performance against RB Leipzig in midweek, but Madrid scraped into the Champions League quarter-finals after hanging onto a 1-1 draw.
They've struggled to match their most potent form in the wake of their Supercopa triumph in January, but it looks as if Madrid will waltz to the title given their current eight-point advantage at the summit.
The hosts will be expected to overcome a Celta side that is fighting against the drop but has performed better than their league position suggests. Benitez's outfit have been somewhat unfortunate this term, but the buffer between themselves and the drop zone is a healthy six points after they beat Almeria 1-0 last time out.
