Bale tipped to hand Real Madrid a winning start in La Liga

Real Madrid begin their La Liga campaign at the Estadio Balaidos where Zinedine Zidane's side face Celta Vigo.

Latest odds

Madrid won both matches against Celta last season with a 4-2 success in Vigo followed by a 2-0 victory at the Bernabeu.

As such, Zidane's side are clear favourites ($1.57) with a draw presenting good value ($4.33) and Celta deemed real outsiders ($5).
