Cadiz vs Extremadura Predictions

With just two games left in the Spanish Segunda campaign, Cadiz are at risk of losing their place in the playoffs. The hosts are facing a must-win game, which has seen them built up as the favourites for a victory. However, can they come through this game and claim a win against an Extremadura side who have little to play for? Despite being rooted in the bottom half of the table, the visitors come into this one playing well, so they could be tricky opponents for Cadiz on Sunday.

Cadiz have managed to put together one of the most impressive home records in the division. The sixth-placed side have the fourth best home record in the division, so they should be confident going into this weekend. They are in pole position for the final place in the top six, with Deportivo La Coruna and Real Oviedo both making a push for sixth. However, Cadiz will wrap it up with two more victories, so can they get half-way there with a result here?

Extremadura certainly don’t have their sights set as high, as they’re in 15th place in the second tier going into this clash. They can’t finish any higher than 11th this season – and that’s with results going their way. They are likely to wrap up in the bottom half, despite a real spark in their form over the last few weeks. They come into this clash looking like a tough side to beat, so could the visitors pull off a shock against the odds-on favourites?

Extremadura are currently top of the form table, picking up more points than any other side in the last eight games. They may be a bottom half side, but they’re certainly not playing like one. Since a 1-0 loss to league leaders Osasuna back in March, the visitors have lost just once in the following eight games. They head here with six wins in those eight, while they’ve triumphed in their previous four away trips.

That should be a concern for Cadiz, who are hard to justify as the favourites here. The hosts have drawn five matches on the bounce going into this clash, while their home form isn’t convincing. They’ve won just once in their last six at home, while Cadiz have drawn half of their home matches this term. They are facing a side who have hit form and come here red hot, so we doubt that Cadiz will end their winless streak. We’re going with Extremadura Double Chance, which seems like great value considering their recent form.
