Getting Started
So I was chilling after work yesterday scrolling football news when I saw Real Madrid versus Celta Vigo coming up this weekend. Thought to myself: “Man, I should check their recent history before betting with my buddies.” Grabbed my laptop right there on the couch.
The Search Drama
First I just googled “recent real madrid celta matches” – bad move. Got flooded with news articles about transfers and injuries instead of actual results. Clicked through like 5 different sites wasting 10 minutes until I remembered stats sites exist.
Then I tried “last 5 H2H real madrid celta” and bam! Finally found this clean stats page showing exactly what I wanted. Should’ve started smarter honestly.
What I Uncovered
Checked their last five meetings dating back to 2022. Here’s how it played out:
- 2024 La Liga: Madrid 2-1 Celta (Rodrygo brace)
- 2023 La Liga: Madrid 4-1 Celta (Asensio masterclass)
- 2023 Copa: Madrid 1-0 Celta (late Benzema penalty)
- 2022 La Liga: Celta 1-2 Madrid (Vinicius winner)
- 2022 La Liga: Madrid 2-1 Celta (Benzema + Modric)
My Takeaways
Kinda shocked seeing Madrid won all five! Every single game decided by just 1 goal except that 4-1 smackdown last year. Tells me Celta always puts up a fight at Bernabeu.
Now I know what to tell the guys: Madrid usually wins but rarely dominates. Might avoid betting heavy this round – those slim margins look risky af. Better stick to watching with beers!
