If you recall that the Los Blancos rounded off their final group stage match in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday with stunning win.
Real Madrid thrashed Scottish side, Celtic 5-1 at the Santiago Bernabéu as they finished top of the group after match day six.
Carlo Ancelotti side looked comfortable against Celtic as they dominated the game from start to finish.
Real Madrid were two goals up in the opening 21 minutes after Luka Modric and Rodrygo converted two penalties.
Although Celtic could have pulled one back in the 35th minute after they were awarded a penalty, but was missed by Croatia defender, Josip Juranovic.
While the Croatian was about to take the penalty, Luka Modric was spotted showing Thibaut Courtois where he would play his penalty.
The former Tottenham Hotspur star pointed for Thibaut Courtois to dive to his right which he followed in order to save Juranovic spot kick.
In the second half, Madrid added three more goals from Asensio, Vinicius Jnr and Fede Valverde. But Jota pulled a late consolation back for the away side in the 82 minutes.
Meanwhile Real Madrid will return to La Liga action with away trip to Real Vallecano.
The reigning Champions will not play until Monday November 7 at 8pm GMT.
