The season has been a struggle for Sevilla so far, and the same description fits Cádiz. The bottom dwellers hope for some important points here.

Insights:
  • Sevilla have failed to keep a clean sheet in all their home matches.
  • Cádiz have the fewest scored goals in the first half (4) in La Liga

Sevilla have less rest than Cádiz in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Copa Del Rey game only four days ago. That game was an away game at Deportivo Alaves, so at least Sevilla are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Sevilla form and stats

With 1 La Liga win, 3 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Sevilla are certainly not brimming with confidence. When Sevilla hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Celta de Vigo, Sevilla, Real Valladolid, Getafe, Elche and Espanyol), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

Sevilla are returning here after visiting Deportivo Alaves in a Copa Del Rey match and winning with a 1-0 scoreline. Goalkeeper Dmitrović got the top rating on the team in that game; 8.01 out of ten. Dmitrović topped it up with a clean sheet.

Prior to that, an away loss at Girona in the La Liga.

Take note that 8 of the most recent 10 league games from this club have had goals from both sides.

Sevilla have scored {6 league goals} here from 8 matches, not a lot. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Sevilla have conceded 12 from these games.

Cádiz form and stats

There's been little loot from Cádiz's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 8 away games in the La Liga. Cádiz only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws.

Cádiz delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Elche (placed 20th) in their previous fixture. Midfield player Ocampo was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.93/10. Ocampo scored one goal, hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 23 successful passes (of 26 total).

Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Valencia.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Cádiz playing away, we found 6 games. Results were 1 away win, 2 draws and 3 home wins.

The visitors have scored 5 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. In the opposite end, Cádiz have conceded 13 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Sevilla have pulled off a sequence of 9 consecutive matches without defeat (6-3-0) when playing Cádiz.
