On Friday night, Cadiz and Granada clash at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla in a game that could be crucial at the wrong end of La Liga.
Cadiz looking to boost survival hopesThe Yellow Submarine are currently in 18th place in La Liga and in danger of falling way adrift of the safety of 17th place, as they are now five adrift of Celta Vigo, who occupies that final safe spot.
A 2-0 defeat at Real Sociedad last time out means that the home team has recorded just one win in their previous 25 games in La Liga.
In truth, their recent outings in the Primera Division have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last nine outings.
Cadiz’s recent home form has also been a concern, as they have won just once in their previous 11 La Liga outings at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla.
Their recent home La Liga games have been low-scoring affairs, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their previous seven matches.
Granada looks to be doomed to life in the SegundaThe Andalusians are in 19th place in the Spanish top flight and looked destined for life in the second tier.
Mauricio Pellegrino’s team is currently 13 points from the safety of 18th place and even eight adrift of their hosts.
Unsurprisingly, considering their position in the table, Granada’s recent form in La Liga has been poor. A 1-0 defeat at Real Mallorca last time out means that the visitors have suffered three straight defeats in the Spanish top flight.
Granada is also on a nine-game winless run, during which they have picked up just three draws and suffered six defeats.
The visitors are winless in 15 away games in the Spanish top-flight. Their recent away games have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven matches on the road.
What am I backing?This is likely to be a pretty cagey game, considering the pair are both out of form. I am expecting a game lacking in goals, so the bet I am backing is under 2.5 goals.
