Villarreal - Cádiz predictions

Punters who are looking for a safe bet should definitely consider this match. The home win odds of 1.71 bring great value considering the fact that Villarreal are indeed firm favourites to defeat Cádiz.

With a price of 5.60 on an away win among most online sportsbooks, it’s clear Cádiz will likely not fare well against The Yellow Submarine. Even a draw seems to be too optimistic for the away team.

The Yellow Submarine are coming off from a downright impressive performance against Barcelona in the previous round. Not only did they win an away game against almost impossible odds, but they did so with a considerable 3:5 difference. They took the lead in the early game and only increased their advantage from there.

The away team’s performance in the previous round was well above what most tipsters and bookies expected of them. Although an HT/FT draw does not sound all that exciting, pre-match La Liga betting odds painted them as the 1.84 underdogs.

Win or lose, the away team seems to often participate in rather uneventful matches. For instance, the previous two featured fewer than 2 goals each, which may be the start of a trend.

Cádiz’s La Liga campaign has been going quite poorly this year – they’re currently stuck in the relegation zone and are going into a very difficult matchup. There’s thankfully still time to strive for a better outcome, but time is running out quickly.

Though the odds are clearly in the hosts’ favour, the head-to-head history for this La Liga clash tells a different story. The Yellow Submarine lost the last time these two teams met on the pitch, so an upset is definitely possible.

With limited means at their disposal, both teams will have to make do with shortened rosters. We’re referring to the fact both teams suffered strings of injuries, rendering a good chunk of both squads unavailable for this match. Dani Parejo, Juan Foyth, Pedraza, Denis Suárez, Ramón Terrats will not be playing for the hosts, while Fede, Luis Hernández, Roger Martí, Darwin Machís, Javi Hernández will be missing on the visiting side.

And Under 2.5 Goals is the perfect wager for this fixture. A quick glance at these teams’ statistics will tell you all you need to know about their concession rates, which is why it’s a fairly safe bet, generally priced at around 2.02.
