Celtic has had an excellent start to the new season, with no points lost in the Premier League. Moreover, Celtic beat their arch-rival, Rangers, 4-0 in the previous match. This summer, the team made several boosts, but the players still have not enough experience in European competitions.
Real Madrid also started the La Liga season successfully, comfortably winning the UEFA Super Cup, and in La Liga, they have only wins. In the last round, the Whites even managed to beat formidable Betis. This summer, Casemiro, a key figure in the team's midfield, unexpectedly left the team. However, the first three games without the Brazilian showed that Tchouameni replaces him well. Despite Casemiro's departure, Real Madrid's squad still looks stronger this summer.
Of course, Real Madrid may well lose sensationally against an outsider in the group stage, which has happened often in recent years. Nevertheless, with the current squad and in such good shape, Real must beat Celtic away.
Our prediction: Real Madrid to win. We recommend the “2 Win” bet, odds 1.61
