Barcelona take on the visitors Cadiz in the round 2 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Sunday, August 20th at Estadio Olímpico (Barcelona).
Barcelona didn't quite have the summer they planned. The Blaugrana managed to secure trophies last season. First, Xavi won the Spanish Super Cup against Real Madrid, and then confidently finished 1st in La Liga. However, it's important to remember that their competition wasn't very strong. Additionally, their Champions League journey ended after the group stage, and they didn't fare well in the Europa League either. Their chances of an internal treble were dashed with a defeat in the Copa del Rey semi-finals against the same galacticos. Financial troubles also persisted, and they were further embroiled in the Neymar case scandal. Interesting signings were made in the summer, including Inigo Martinez, Gundogan, and Romeu. However, not only unnecessary players like Kessie and Umtiti left, but also club veterans Alba and Busquets, and in August, Dembele also departed. Neymar wasn't replaced, leaving Joao Felix as the only option.

Cádiz - not a team known for surprises. The Yellow Submarine doesn't set higher goals than simply staying afloat in La Liga. Their current manager, Sergio Gonzalez Soriano, is quite suitable for this purpose. He previously showed his ability at Valladolid to assemble a squad from limited resources, capable of earning the necessary points for survival each season. He's already achieved this twice with the Submarines. This season is unlikely to be more ambitious. Despite an optimistic start, with a home victory against Alaves.
Cádiz managed to avoid losing to the giants four times in a row between 2020 and 2022. But last season, they finally secured victories against the culers. The Blaugrana are, of course, the favorites, but the visitors know how to defend. Let's place a bet on Cádiz with a +2 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Cadiz to win with +2.0 handicap.
