Atletico Madrid vs Cadiz Predictions and Betting Tips
Atletico Madrid bid to make it four league wins on the trot this Friday as they take on Cadiz at the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano this Friday. Read on for our expert tips and predictions.
Since Cádiz got promoted to the LaLiga last season, they've found it difficult in this fixture losing all of the three games against the Madrid-based outfit including a 4-1 thrashing in the reverse match this season.
Big win for Simeone last weekend
We expected Atletico Madrid to be stretched really thing last weekend when they visited the Estadio Benito Villamarin to take on top-four hopefuls Real Betis. The hosts did give a good account of themselves, however, Diego Simeone's troops proved to be too good on the day with Joao Felix's brace and a late clincher from Lemar making sure of a 3-1 victory. Diego Simeone's troops are on a rich bank of form at the moment, picking up four wins in their last five league games and with the challenge of Manchester United still to come next Tuesday, their resurgence couldn't have come at a better time.
Cadiz, although have been struggling this season, head into this game off the back of a four-game unbeaten run in the Spanish top-flight. The games against Celta Vigo, Getafe and Mallorca ended in stalemates but we witnessed Cadiz do one better last weekend when they hosted Rayo Vallecano. Last weekend's Ramon de Carranza visitors had no answer as the Yellow Submarine secured a 2-0 victory via goals from Alcaraz and Idrissi. Still a point from safety, however, 18th placed Cadiz are still in the fight to avoid relegation to the Spanish second division.
