Cadiz vs Alaves Predictions
- Under 2.5 goals landed in 13 of Cadiz’s 19 home league games last season
- Cadiz scored only 30 goals in 38 games last season
- Alaves netted only 47 goals in 42 games in the Segunda Division last term
Both sides expected to struggle
The relegation betting suggests Cadiz and Alavez are two sides expected to struggle in La Liga this season and that could contribute to a nervy start to proceedings at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla.
Cadiz finished 14th in La Liga last term but they were only two points clear of the relegation spots, while Alaves were promoted via the playoffs from the Segunda Division having finished fourth during the regular season.
Cadiz’s problem was their lack of firepower as they netted only 30 goals in 38 games, the joint-worst scoring record alongside rock-bottom Elche.
That has to improve if they want to avoid the drop again and losing the creative talents of Theo Bongonda to Spartak Moscow won’t aid their cause.
Goals may be hard to come by
Newly-promoted Alaves also have a point to prove in forward areas as they managed only 47 goals in 42 games in a weaker division last season.
It was an immediate return to the top-flight Luis Garcia’s side but they will have bad memories of the 2021-2022 campaign, when they finished bottom with 31 points and scored only 31 goals.
During that campaign, Alaves and Cadiz won one meeting apiece but, unsurprisingly, under 2.5 goals landed on each occasion.
Under 2.5 goals landed in 13 of Cadiz’s 19 home league games last season and both teams scored in only six of those matches, so expect a low-scoring showdown.
Cadiz shared the spoils in six of those 19 outings, so a 1-1 draw could be the way to go for correct-score punters.
