Match Predict – Athletic Bilbao to win
Athletic Bilbao won 2 games out of their last 5 games in all competitions and have one 60% of their meetings with Cadiz as we expect them to grab another vital point and advance.
Both teams to score – No
Considering the statistics and the meetings both teams had previously in all Spanish competitions, out of the total 5 matches, 80% of the games have ended up with only one of the teams scoring in the game as we expect the scenario to be repeated.
Total Goals Over 1.5
Numbers and statistics are the most important tools for predictive analysis. As mentioned above, in the previous 5 games, 60% of the games have ended up with a minimum of 2 goals in the game(3/5). We are certain that the minimum number of goals will be 2.
Athletic Bilbao:
Athletic Bilbao performed amazingly in their first 2 months of La Liga with their new/old manager, Ernesto Valverde, who came back to his club to help as they were standing in the top 4 positions in the first couple of weeks. After that, they lost their consistency and in their last 5 games they lost 3 games and won 2 which put them in their current standing, 8th place, to be away from their next competitor, Osasuna by 2 points.

Cadiz:
On the other hand, Cadiz’s objective is to stay in La Liga for another season as they are currently fighting to get out of the relegation zone as they have collected a total of 19 points. They are only one win away to get “safer”. In their last game against Mallorca, they grabbed a very vital win and took home the 3 points. Another draw result would be good for the but getting a couple of wins would be ideal.
Safe Bets
