Is this to be the game where Cádiz to put a halt to their recent record of poor results? They go into this fixture on the back of two recent defeats to Real Valladolid and Barcelona.

Also, with relegation a real prospect for Cádiz, Sergio must stop the poor run of form that has produced five losses in six meetings. Now they have 1 matches won, 5 games lost and 0 duels drawn; that’s why they currently sit in nineteenth place, with a total of three points having won one game and lost five fixtures.

Cádiz have lost three games of their three League matches at home this season.

Victory for Cádiz would take their points tally to 6 so far this season.

Cádiz are no strangers this season to illness and injury and Sergio is concerned that Saturday’s fixture could see him without two of his key players.

Villarreal have 11 points to their name, going into this tie

Whilst a disappointing 1-1 draw against Seville in their last game, is not the worst result they could have experienced, Villarreal will be keen to improve the result in this fixture.

Also, Villarreal keep finding ways to win, having secured three victories in their last six meetings is astonishing this season. With a sixth position in the league and 3 wins, 1 losses and 2 draws, they currently have 11 points in the League having won three meetings, drawn two matches, and lost one game.

Villarreal will travel to Cádiz with a win record on the road that is quite unremarkable, with two victories, one dart, and one losse.

A victory for Villarreal would put them on 14 points.

Good Attacking Performance

Villarreal have a good scoring record this season, with 10 netted so far. This season, their stand-out attacking players have been Alex Baena (3), Gerard Moreno (2), and Nicolas Jackson (1). Villarreal’s defence has been rock solid so far, only conceding two goals so far.

Injury and illness have depleted Unai Emery’s Villarreal and they will likely be missing five key personnel for Saturday’s match.
