Cadiz lost only once in the last four rounds, gaining two draws and one victory. As for a potential fighter for survival, the results are quite decent. Let me remind you that the Yellow Submarine has seven points after eight rounds. This is enough for the team to be on the 15th line. The gap from three underdogs is three points. In the current championship, Alvaro Cervera's men gained only victory and four draws and suffered three defeats. The goal difference is 7-11. Five games ended with Under 2.5 goals scored. In addition, five confrontations ended with an exchange of goals scored. Cadiz CF earned four points in three away matches (one victory, one draw, and one defeat, with a goal difference of 4-5).
Both clubs prefer a cautious style. Actually, Espanyol scored six goals in eight matches, while Cadiz scored one more. And they do not arrange goal extravaganzas in head-to-head matches. As a rule, they end with Under 2.5 goals scored. I think that the upcoming game between Espanyol and Cadiz will not be rich in goals either. Most likely, they will not be able to score more than twice. But I would not want to bet on low production. In my opinion, you can bet on W1. In the last three matches in Catalonia, the Budgerigars turned out to be stronger than the Yellows. Moreover, Moreno's men are performing very well at their native stadium in the current season.
Prediction for the match: Espanyol to win
