Cadiz is hosting Villarreal at Estadio Ramon de Carranza in round 29 of the Spanish LaLiga. Cadiz has been playing in solid form as late, but they have lost their last game in LaLiga. Villarreal has knocked out Juventus from the Champions League earlier this week, and it was a well-deserved win from Villarreal in that game.
Cadiz has won only 1 of their last 5 games, but the good news is they have lost only 1, and that was against Atletico Madrid last weekend. With 24 points, Cadiz is now in 18th place, which is still in the relegation zone, but they are now only 2 points away from safety. Also, Cadiz is not scoring a lot of goals, only 24 in 28 games, while their defense is not the worst in the league, but it’s still pretty bad with 41 conceded goals. Negredo is the leading goalscorer for Cadiz with 6 goals, while Lozano has added 5 goals. There are a few injuries in Cadiz as well. I think Cadiz has a decent chance at staying LaLiga, but they will need a lot of luck and a few more points.
Villarreal is now in fantastic form, they have lost only 1 of their last 9 games, and that form has helped them beat Juventus in the Champions League earlier this week. It was a tight game against Juventus, but in the last 15 minutes of the game Villarreal has scored 3 goals, and they ended up winning that match 0-3. The bad news for Villarreal is they have drawn Bayern in the quarterfinals, but they can still be very competitive. With 45 points, Villarreal is getting close to the top 5, and they are now in 7th place. Both offensively and defensively, Villarreal is excellent, if not the most consistent team in the league. Moreno and Danjuma are the leading goalscorers for Villarreal with 8 goals each, while Pino has added 6 goals. Parejo has 6 assists. Now that they have succeeded in the Champions League, Villarreal will do everything to go on the international break on a positive note, and that means winning this game, and they can certainly do it.
Cadiz has never beaten Villarreal in the past, and they will not start now with the way they are playing. I like Villarreal in this spot, I think their morale is high, they don’t have any injuries, and I think they will get a win here.
