Cadiz vs Celta Vigo Predictions

This should be a hard-fought match down near the relegation zone. Cadiz are decent at home and tend to score goals. I am backing Celta Vigo’s poor away form to continue with a defeat.

Cadiz Form & Team News

Cadiz got a massive win in Round 35 to move out of the relegation zone. After a subsequent loss, they’re outside the bottom three on goal difference with two matches left to play.

A run of just one victory in eight was ended with a 2-1 home win against Valencia. After being thrashed 5-1 at Atletico Madrid, they lost 1-0 at Mallorca.

A crucial 1-0 home victory against relegation rivals Real Valladolid followed. On Wednesday, Cadiz were beaten 2-0 at Villarreal.

Coach Sergio Gonzalez has half a dozen injuries to contend with. Roger and Brian Ocampo are missing in attack and Victor Chust is injured in defence.

Alex Fernandez and John Ander are absent in midfield. Centre back Juan Cala misses out.

Cadiz Predicted Lineup

Ledesma; Carcelen, Hernandez, Mere, Espino; Alejo, Escalante, Emeterio, Bongonda; Guardiola, Sobrino.

Celta Vigo Form & Team News

After wins for some teams around them in midweek, Celta are now just two points above the relegation zone. They’ve lost six of their last eight matches and look in trouble.

Following a rare 1-0 home win against Elche, Celta Vigo lost four matches on the bounce. They were at 1-1 at home to Valencia and away at Athletic Bilbao before losing both fixtures 2-1.

On Tuesday night, they drew 1-1 at home with Girona. They had been 1-0 up but a draw was a fair result.

Key striker Iago Aspas should be fit to start. He featured for nine minutes in midweek after an injury.

Coach Carlos Carvalhal has doubts over midfielders Fran Beltran and Luca de la Torre.
