Real Madrid will be aiming to make it back-to-back wins in La Liga when they head to Celta Vigo on Saturday night.
Carlo Ancelotti's side entered the October international break off the back of a 2-0 home success over Villarreal, with the result leaving them second in the La Liga table, three points behind leaders Barcelona.
Los Blancos will return to action against Celta this weekend before preparing for back-to-back fixtures against Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona in the Champions League and La Liga respectively.
