On Sunday afternoon, Villarreal and Cadiz face off at the Estadio de la Ceramica in a game that could be vital in both teams’ La Liga campaigns.
Villarreal will be looking to build on their win at BarcelonaLast time out in La Liga, the Yellow Submarine recorded a stunning stoppage-time 5-3 win at reigning La Liga champions Barcelona.
The victory ended a three-game winless run for Villarreal in the Spanish top flight. However, the encounter continued a recent run of high-scoring games for Marcelino’s team, as six of their last seven Liga matches have produced over 2.5 goals.
Villarreal are 13th place in La Liga, seven points clear of the visitors who occupy the final relegation berth.
The home team have a mixed recent home record. However, there are positive signs for Villarreal on home soil, as they have taken four points from their last two home matches in the Spanish top flight.
Cadiz on a long winless run in La LigaThe visitors head into this clash on the back of a 13-game winless run in La Liga after a goalless draw at home to Athletic Club last time out in the Spanish top-flight.
The draw was a respectable result, but they really need to start winning their matches in La Liga to escape the drop zone.
All is not lost despite their recent poor Liga form, as they are only a point adrift of the safety of 17th place.
Their recent La Liga games have been tight and low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in eight of their previous nine matches in the Spanish top flight.
Away wins have been hard to come by for Cadiz in La Liga, as they have failed to win in their last 16 away games.
What am I backing?I expect this game to be relatively even, but the bet I am backing is a narrow home win.
