The Cádiz-Granada, another regional rivalry meeting although with less weight in history than the confrontations against Sevilla or Betis.
Today the Athletic-Cádiz is disputed, a duel for the people of Cadiz of great weight and with great difficulty.
For its part, Granada’s match against Osasuna has been suspended since today they have an appointment with the Uefa Europa League at Malmö’s home.
Granada is a modest player who recently rose from Second A and has been able to put his head into the Europa League, something unthinkable for such a humble club.
Cádiz has traveled to Bilbao without Cifuentes, the most veteran goalkeeper in the League, quite a surprise his absence for no apparent reason, perhaps saving himself for the match against Granada that will be of vital importance, whatever happens today.
Mr. Cervera intends to introduce some rotations in addition to the change in goal.
Cádiz is ranked 15th with 3 points, at the expense of today’s game.
With 2 losses and 1 victory.
Granada occupying the UEFA place in position 6 with a total of 6 points.
With 2 victories and 1 bulky defeat against the Atm.
Their last confrontation dates from the 18/19 campaign where Granada got promoted to First Division.
Both duels were draws, both the Cádiz 0-0 Granada played at Carranza and the 1-1 played at Los Cármenes with Granada at home.
Despite the superiority expected by the Nasrids for this match, they will not find themselves at all comfortable, since Cádiz has shown what pasta they are made of, being a serious team and that they know what they play, Sevilla already taught them the teeth in a game that ended up defeated but leaving very positive feelings, in fact this Cádiz has certain parallels with Granada in terms of ways of understanding football, I don’t see anything other than a draw here.
Obviously there are the 3 usual scenarios, but a draw prevails over a home or away victory.
The meeting will be very even and entertaining with more arrivals to the areas than can be anticipated, in principle I see goals from both sides, a 1-1 or a 2-2 would be interesting, but even 0-0 would be worth us.
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / NO @ 1,68
