Real Madrid form and stats

Real Madrid have been very solid at home in the La Liga so far, with 20 points collected from 8 matches (6-2-0). This has contributed greatly to their 1st position in the table. Ever since the Osasuna game Madrid has been unbeatable here at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu producing four straight wins.

The Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 348 minutes without conceding a goal in the La Liga.

Madrid's previous game was a La Liga match also played at home, ending 2-0 versus Atletico Madrid (placed 4th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Courtois loved the game against Atletico Madrid. With a stunning six saves the goalkeeper played a huge part in the 2-0 victory. Courtois, who guards the goal, was given a match rating of 8.8 out of 10 in that game. Courtois stopped the opponent with six saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.

Ahead of that match, Madrid won a home game hosting Inter (2-0).

The manager Ancelotti will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Athletic Club in only three days.

Goals decide football matches and Madrid are scoring many of them at home; 18 on target from 8 league matches. From these home matches, Real Madrid have conceded only 5 goals.

Cádiz form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Cádiz so far with only 8 points returning home. The records show 2-2-4 (win-draw-lose). With two straight losses from their last two away games, Cádiz are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Two travels in a row for Cádiz, whose manager Cervera Díaz could celebrate last time after the Copa Del Rey win against Albacete. Midfield player Calderón was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.41/10. Calderón served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Granada.

As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Cádiz's match history for similar games we find one match. The home team won zero of these as expected, zero of them by at least two goals. Cádiz managed zero draws and one surprise win.

Cádiz have scored 9 goals on their travels this season, from 8 away games in the league. The Cádiz manager Cervera Díaz has some worries about the defense as 17 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last five meetings: four - zero - one (Madrid wins - draws - Cádiz wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.
