Real Madrid vs Cádiz Prediction & Preview

Preview

The Estadio Santiago Bernabéu is set to host a crucial La Liga clash between league leaders Real Madrid and relegation-battling Cádiz on Saturday, May 4th. Carlo Ancelotti's men are on a roll, having won all five of their last matches, including a thrilling 2-2 draw against FC Bayern München in their previous outing. Meanwhile, Mauricio Pellegrino's Cádiz side has struggled to find consistency, managing just one win and three losses in their last five games, with their most recent match ending in a 1-1 stalemate against Mallorca.

The two teams have a rich history, having faced each other five times previously. Real Madrid has dominated these encounters, boasting three wins and two draws. Their last meeting on November 26, 2023, saw the Merengues emerge victorious with a comfortable 0-3 win at Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla.

Real Madrid's impressive form is reflected in their league standing, with the team currently sitting atop the La Liga table with 84 points. Cádiz, on the other hand, finds itself in the relegation zone, 18th in the standings with just 26 points. The hosts have taken an impressive 15 points from their last five games, while Cádiz has managed only four.

The attacking prowess of Real Madrid is evident in their average of 2.2 goals scored per game, which increases to 2.6 when playing at home. In contrast, Cádiz averages a meager 0.8 goals per game, which dips further to 0.5 when on the road. Defensively, Real Madrid concedes an average of 1.1 goals per game, while Cádiz leaks an average of 1.5.

Bet

Considering the overwhelming form and stats in favor of Real Madrid, I would recommend a Home Win at odds of 1.33. The Merengues' impressive attacking record, combined with their solid defensive foundation, makes them strong favorites to take all three points from this encounter. With Cádiz struggling to find the net on the road, it's hard to see them causing an upset in this one.
