Racing Ferrol vs Cadiz prediction for the match on May 18, 2025
On May 18, at the "Municipal da Malata," the 40th round of Spain's Segunda will see Racing Ferrol take on Cadiz. For this match, I'm suggesting a bet on goals / cards / winner.
Racing Ferrol
This team can hardly be considered successful. They barely managed to break into the Segunda, and there are still plenty within the club who remember those seasons spent over the past decade and a half in Spain's fourth division. Only in recent seasons have they managed to claw their way up to Segunda and secure their place there.
But the club has clearly not avoided the "second season syndrome." The only consolation might be that Cartagena look even worse, but let's not forget, it's not just two teams that go down—it's four. Ferrol's players are certainly among that quartet, delivering dismal results. To put it in perspective: since the beginning of February, they've avoided defeat just three times in three months. That includes last round's 0-0 draw with Tenerife, another relegation struggler.
Cadiz
This club rarely makes it into La Liga. In fact, just a year ago, one of the most successful spells in the modest history of this project came to an end—they spent several seasons in Spain's top flight and matched their best-ever finish. They tried to battle as underdogs last season but ended up relegated, even if it was from 18th place.
You'd think a recently relegated side would be among the favorites at a lower level. But Cadiz had a disastrous start and continued to deliver lackluster performances. However, in the last round, they did manage to beat Almeria 2-1.
Match facts

H2H
This season marked the first meeting between these clubs since 2016. That game ended in a goalless draw.

Bookmakers are rightfully giving more credit to the visitors. Cadiz aren't perfect either, but it's worth backing them to win—using the "draw no bet" option for extra security (odds – 1.70).
