On January 6, Mestalla (Valencia) will host the match of the 16th round of the La Liga, in which Valencia will compete with Cadiz. The battle will start at 21:00 CET.

Valencia

The club is considered to be one of the most popular all over the country, and Mestalla is a stadium with incredibly demanding fans. During the last few years, everything depends not on them, but on another Peter Lim’s idea. It seemed that “the Bats” were demonstrating “something” for the first time after his foolish decision to fire Marcelino: under the rule of Bordalas the team added in the game and even reached the final of the Copa del Rey, that was dramatically lost on penalties in the struggle with Betis. But still, “Pepe” had to leave the club after a year of cooperation and the management relied on Gennaro Gattuso, who had never worked in Spain before. However, the Italian has his own trump cards, and “Los che”, being extremely unstable, are not hopeless. They followed this style after the pause. Having opened the score, the team was defeated by Villarreal, conceding the decisive goal in the 88th minute of the game. But then there appeared a 3-0 victory, albeit within the framework of the Copa del Rey, with modest La Nucia.

Cadiz

The team does not often achieve the La Liga level – it has spent a decade and a half there throughout the entire history. Having a long pause, “the Yellow Submarine” returned to this level in 2020 and even took the 12th place, repeating its previous record. However, the next season was characterized by the struggle for survival, fortunately, a successful one (Granada earned only 1 point less in that season). Moreover, this time the starting rounds were full of defeats and only in the course of the autumn it was able to get some points. Those, however, were only enough for the penultimate place in November. Still, there was a kind of feeling that Sergio Gonzalez and his wards did not look hopeless. The team snatched a 1-1 draw in the match against Almeria last week – that was Lucas Perez who scored in the 83rd minute of the game.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

Every second match ended in a draw, if we take into account 7 previous games. This happened four times, another 3 times the club that hosted the opponent took the home victory.

Predictions

Bookmakers consider Valencia to be an obvious favourite. But Cadiz is definitely ready to fight to the last – we bet on “total: over 2.5” (odd: 1.96).
