For Celta Vigo, the top-ten should be a realistic target this season. They have the players and the roster to sustain a challenge in that regard.

RM vs CEV Dream11 Grand League Picks for Captains & Vice-Captains:
Eden Hazard: Though he is a doubt for the match, Hazard is worth mentioning here. His long protracted move to Madrid finally came to reality as Chelsea reluctantly sold him this summer.
Expect big things from this little fellow.
Last Season’s Stats:
Karim Benzema: The Frenchman is now the main striker at Santiago Bernabeu. No more the big shadow of Cristiano Ronaldo hindering him as he staked his name as one of the best strikers in the world with a career-best tally in a single season during the 2018-19 season.
Luka Modric: The reigning FIFA player of the year has had a rather subdued season on a personal level. But there’s no denying that Modric is one of the finest Croatian to ever grace the game.
Iago Aspas: How critical he is for Celta Vigo could be seen from the fact that Vigo came crashing down from the European places to the relegation quagmire after the former Liverpool striker suffered an injury.
But he is fit now and will be looking for another strong start in front of the goal.
RM vs CEV Dream11 Grand League Scenarios:
Scenario 1:
Madrid to win:
It means, Madrid’s attacking players like Benzema and Gareth Bale (if he starts) are likely to be amongst the goals.
In that case, selecting Tony Kross in the midfield looks a good option, while wing-backs should be considered as well.
Scenario 2:
Celta Vigo to win:
Whether Celta win or not, Iago Aspas can’t be left out of your Dream11 fantasy teams.
That said, if the above scenario works, Gabriel Fernandez should be in your team, while Fran Beltran is a solid choice as well.
Scenario 3:
A score draw:
Benzema + Aspas Combo, plus left + right wing-back combo from both the teams.
Only one defensive midfield player and that too should be from Real Madrid.
Scenario 4:
A narrow Real Madrid win:
Benzema and Aspas should be taken, with midfield and defence equally distributed between the two teams, with Courtois as the goalkeeper.
Scenario 5:
A narrow Real Madrid win option 2:
Here we will take players we couldn’t in the aforementioned scenario.
Scenario 6:
Wildcard
In this team, we can go all-out attack in terms of taking only players who have the ability of scoring goals, given that there is a chance it might be a 2-2 draw.
