Cadiz hosts Villarreal in the Copa del Rey 4th round. Interesting fact is that Cadiz is also nicknamed “The Yellow Submarine”, just like Villarreal.
Cadiz is now in the Segunda B Group 4 (third league) and a pretty good side there … they lost last year in the promotion playoffs, this year are 3rd and will attack promotion again with big chances. Hosts are undefeated at home (5-3-0) and are a very hard side to beat, only 2 losses in 15 matches this year. Also Cadiz lost only one time in the last 10 matches, won 3-0 in the weekend, so they are in very good form. But of course Villarreal is going to be a totally different level of opposition.
Bet on Cadiz vs. Villarreal with the highest handicap odds at Pinnacle Sports.
Villarreal beat Cordoba 2-0 over the weekend, the 4th consecutive match in which they did not tasted defeat … visitors are doing good in La Liga this year, 6th place, but this game will be a total different thing. This will be Villarreal’s 4th game in 12 days and they are scheduled to play another 5 games in the next 15 days in La Liga, Copa del Rey and Europa League … so surely the travel at Cadiz is not really a priority. Coach Marcelino confirmed this by sending only a 16 man squad to Cadiz with a lot of regulars missings. Some young players will make their debut. So the team news say that among the missing players are Giovanni Dos Santos, Cani, Bruno, Gaspar, Gabriel Paulista and Luciano Vietto. Other important players who made the trip (like Asenjo) will probably not be in the lineup either.
Possible lineup for Villarreal: Juan Carlos – Rukavina, Dorado, Puerto, Marin – Nahuel Leiva, Pina, Trigueros, Espinosa – Gerard Moreno, Uche
Clearly Villarreal will approach this game with the B team and even if there is still a quality difference, Cadiz will take advantage and make this a close game at home. Villarreal doesn’t want anything more than a result to put them in pole position for the second leg at home … while for Cadiz it is the match of the season so far. Hosts are a resilient side and for sure can at least survive a 1 goal handicap … my tip will be Cadiz to cover the 1,5 handicap and I think they can even deny the win for Villarreal. Correct score prediction: Cadiz – Villarreal 1-1. For sure odds will drop on Cadiz because of the team news from Villarreal.
