Cadiz take on the visitors Elche in the round 17 match of Spanish LaLiga. The match will be played on Monday, January 16th at Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla (Cadiz).
Cadiz got involved into struggle for survival last season. It was won for the wards by a new mentor, Sergio Gonzalez Soriano, and is clearly trying to repeat this success. The team had a frankly weak, even disastrous start. But gradually it turned out to gain momentum. And in the winter there were good successes at all - first Lucas Perez (after that he bought out his contract and left for his native Deportivo, which hangs out in the 3rd division of the country) brought a draw with Almeria at home. Well, in the last round, Alcaraz scored an early goal, and this handicap was kept, despite all the efforts of Valencia. 1-0 at the Mestalla allowed them to take 3 points, but still the club is in the relegation zone - on 18th place.

Elche hope that Pablo Machin, who came to the post of head coach at the end of autumn, would be able to use his talent and experience to make progress - and he needed an extremely serious and fast breakthrough, after 4 points (all due to draws) in 14 fights . But so far, he has not been able to do almost anything in a new place. Elche lost 0-2 Atletico in Madrid – the grandee badly needs points. And even the departure from the cup is understandable, even if it was formalized by a defeat from the semi-professionals Ceuta. But on January 6, hosting a potential competitor at home, the “green-striped” confirmed their status as an unconditional outsider, without responding to the only early goal of Iago Aspas. 0-1, and this is another step towards an early and inglorious departure.
Elche had 6 head-to-head matches without defeat. But in May, Cadiz achieved an important victory with a score of 3-0. It is far from a fact that now Cadiz will be able to repeat the defeat that was last spring. But still, the “green-striped”, especially in the home field, have to take the maximum. We recommend betting that the match will end with the victory of the hosts of the arena.
Prediction for the match: Cadiz to win.
