Cadice-Villarreal is a match from the seventh day of the Spanish La Liga: here is where to watch it, the probable formations and the prediction
CADICE – VILLARREAL | Saturday 2pm
Before the break, Cadiz found their first victory of the season and also found their first points in their own league. The team that hosts Villarreal on Saturday also found their first goal of the season against Valladolid: the one-nil win in the away match also stopped them conceding goals. There were fourteen goals conceded without ever having scored. In short, everything moved for a formation that will now probably lose again. Yes, because Villarreal is objectively stronger and cannot lose points on the road against a team that will fight for salvation until the last minute.
Not even the break for the national teams obviously jeopardises a result that appears to be a foregone conclusion. The team led by Unai Emery – who drew at home against Sevilla in the last round – has what it takes to take the three points and should do so without any particular problems. Not least because one swallow doesn’t make a summer and Cadiz’s problems are obvious and will remain so for some time to come. Unless a miracle happens during this two-week break. Difficult.

The Prediction
A challenge that seems to have a written outcome. Villarreal’s victory against a Cadiz side that has obvious structural problems and that a win certainly cannot erase. In short, Emery’s team will comfortably take the three points.
