Villarreal will be looking to keep their Champions League dreams alive this week, as they chase maximum points against Cadiz. Meanwhile, the visitors will desperately need a result in their battle to avoid relegation in the Spanish top flight.
La Liga Preview
It could yet be a successful end to the season for Villarreal, as they remain in contention to secure a Champions League finish in the Spanish top flight. However, they will be relying on favours from elsewhere if they are to secure a spot in the top four, as they currently trail Real Sociedad by five points coming into this weekend. The hosts this week are in excellent record form, as they have landed four wins from their previous five.
Villarreal has also picked up victories in each of their last two matches in the league, and they will be looking to achieve a third straight success on Wednesday. They picked up a dramatic win in their previous match, as Gerard Moreno netted a 94th minute winner against Girona. Their opening goal in that clash was netted by Yeremy Pino after just nine minutes.
This will also be an important fixture in the context of Cadiz’s season, as they currently sit just above the relegation places in the La Liga standings. They are just three points above the bottom three, but their superior goal difference could yet prove crucial in their battle to avoid the drop. Cadiz has won two of their previous four, which includes a success in their most recent match.
Cadiz were in fine form over the weekend, as they landed a straightforward 2-0 home win over Valladolid. The scoring was opened after 69 minutes, before a second was added just under ten minutes later. Both efforts in the success were netted by Theo Bongonda.
Villarreal vs Cadiz Head to Head
Cadiz comes into this fixture having gone three without a defeat against Villarreal. However, two matches over that period have ended in draws. This exact fixture last season saw the points shared following a dramatic 3-3 draw.
Villarreal vs Cadiz Prediction
Draws have been extremely common when these two sides have clashed in recent seasons. However, we find it challenging to overlook Villarreal this weekend. They have won two of their last three home matches against Cadiz, and we fully expect them to record a 2-0 win on Wednesday.
