It has been a memorable week for Athletic Club, as they stunned Barcelona to reach the next round of the Copa del Rey in midweek. However, their attention must switch back to league matters this weekend, as they make the trip to Cadiz. But, a victory for the away team could see them end the round in the Champions League spots.
La Liga Preview
Athletic Bilbao will be delighted with the start to the season that they have made this term, as the Spanish giants remain in the hunt to achieve two domestic targets. In midweek, they booked their spot in the next round of the Copa del Rey with a 4-2 win over Barcelona, but they will be looking to get back to winning ways in the league on Sunday after suffering a defeat in their most recent fixture.
Bilbao remain one of the in-form sides in the competition after winning four of their last five matches. That run of form currently sees them sit fifth in the standings, but a victory this weekend could potentially see them end the round in third place in the standings.
Bet hereCadiz will likely be a massive outsider to claim maximum points this weekend, as the Spanish side come into the round after losing their last three in La Liga. That run of form sees them sit in the bottom three positions in the league standings, but a return to winning ways could see them move out of the relegation places.
However, Cadiz have struggled in the attacking third throughout this season after netting just 15 goals. That is the lowest tally of any side in the Spanish top-flight. But, a response will be expected after they were completely outplayed when losing 1-0 on the road against Alaves last weekend.
Cadiz vs Athletic Club Head to Head
Bilbao’s record in this fixture is incredibly strong, as they have won each of their last four against Cadiz. Over that period, they have netted 14 goals and have conceded just three. The most recent clash between the sides this term saw Bilbao land a 3-0 home win in September.
Cadiz vs Athletic Club Prediction
These sides find themselves at contrasting ends of the league standings, and the form certainly points to a straightforward win for Bilbao. Therefore, it appears worthwhile to side with the away team landing maximum points in La Liga this weekend.
