On Sunday afternoon, Cadiz will host Valencia at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla as the home team looks to escape La Liga’s relegation zone.
Cadiz form guideThe Yellow Submarine heads into this game in desperate need of a victory to move out of the Spanish top-flight’s bottom three. They are currently in 18th place but just a point from the safety of 17th place.
A run of 15 La Liga games with a victory has not helped their cause. A 2-0 defeat at fellow strugglers Granada ended a run of five straight draws in the Spanish top-flight.
The game continued a low-scoring pattern for Cadiz games of late in La Liga, as their last six games have produced under 2.5 goals.
Cadiz has failed to win in their last six home matches in the Spanish top-flight, picking up four draws and suffering two defeats. Like their recent La Liga games in general, the home sides' recent matches on home soil have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last 11 outings.
Valencia form guideLos Che will head into this game in high spirits after mounting an unbeaten run of three games in La Liga, including back-to-back wins over Rayo Vallecano and Villarreal.
The 3-1 derby win over the latter ended a run of low-scoring games for Ruben Baraja’s team, as their previous three league games in La Liga had all produced under 2.5 goals.
Valencia has a poor recent away record, winning just once in their previous nine away games in the Spanish top flight. However, that one win was in their last match on their travels, as they recorded a 1-0 win at Rayo Vallecano.
What am I backing?Cadiz has had a lot of draws and tight encounters. I believe this could be a relatively even and low-scoring game. The bet I am backing is under 2.5 goals scored.
