Cadiz vs Elche: prediction for the La Liga fixture
Cadiz avoided defeats in three latest matches. Do they have a chance to extend that streak in a game against Elche on January 16? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
Cadiz
Spain11 shots on goal and 46 crosses were not enough for Valencia to avoid defeat at the hands of today's hosts in the most recent game. Relegation candidates survived some close calls, but eventually earned a crucial away victory, a first one since September. After that win, the Yellow-Blues are tied with Sevilla and that means that hosts have a chance to leave the danger zone, if results in other games will go their way.
Cadiz head coach, Sergio, is hoping for another incredible salvation. After 16 matches of the current season team has three points more than in the previous one at that point. Three victories and six draws brought 15 points and an 18th position in the standings.
Zaldua, Jose Mari, Gil, Garrido, Chust and Cala will miss the upcoming game.
Elche
SpainElche are going for their best result in decades - they are trying to retain the La Liga spot for a fourth consecutive season. But after 16 rounds the White-Greens have no victories, which is a truly historical «accolade». After a humiliating defeat to a third-tier Ceuta (0:1) in Copa del Rey the Green-striped ones took another blow, losing to Celta (0:1) in La Liga.
Visitors currently have only four points. It is a second-worst result in La Liga's history after 16 matches. Situation seems dreadful for a new manager Pablo Machin. Team's injuried list is getting bigger, plus his players received red cards in each of three latest matches.
Merco, Josan, Collado, Chetauyah, Bigas and Alamo are unavailable for the upcoming game.
