Atl. Madrid Cadiz CF prediction 2023-10-01

Atl. Madrid vs Cadiz CF prediction: SPAIN: LaLiga betting tips on match 2023-09-30 19:00.
As the La Liga (LL) season starts to settle, AtlĂ©tico Madrid find themselves as part of a group of teams chasing surprise early leaders Girona ahead of Round 8. But Diego Simeone’s men are gathering momentum, with their 3-1 victory over arch-rivals Real Madrid backed up by a routine 2-0 success over Osasuna that kept them in touch with the top four despite having played a game less.

It’s at home where AtlĂ©ti have been most impressive, winning each of their last 11 LL matches at the Civitas Metropolitano – their longest such run since a 14-game streak between May 2012 and February 2013. That sequence includes a thumping 5-1 victory over CĂĄdiz in May, part of a six-match winning streak in home H2H meetings, three of which were accompanied by a clean sheet.

The Yellow Submarine will be determined not to sink as easily on their next visit to the capital, and they’ll be hopeful after making a solid start to the LL campaign themselves (W2, D3, L2). A midweek 0-0 stalemate with Rayo Vallecano perhaps underlined their biggest issue at this stage however, as only newly-promoted Las Palmas have scored fewer than Cádiz’s six goals.

Avoiding another relegation battle will be the ultimate aim for Sergio González’s men, as they only finished two points above the drop zone in 2022/23. Both goals and points have been hard to come by on the road for Cádiz, who since beating Valencia in their first LL trip of the calendar year, have won just once away from the Nuevo Mirandilla (D5, L8).

Players to watch: With Álvaro Morata suspended, AtlĂ©ti’s goalscoring burden falls more heavily on the shoulders of Antoine Griezmann, who netted twice in the Mattress Makers’ 5-1 H2H win in May. Chris Ramos is expected to lead the line for Cadiz after scoring twice in his last four matches, both of which arrived before half-time.

Hot stat: There have been 29 goals across the last six H2Hs, an average of 4.83 per game.
