Celta Vigo – Cadiz CF Preview

Celta Vigo will kick off proceedings in the relegation zone (D1, L3) after conceding four second-half goals to Real Madrid last time out (L 2-5). Attention now turns to arresting an ongoing run of home losses at three, and Celta are actually favoured to get a much-craved first win of 2021/22, having attained their widest margin of victory of last term (W 4-0) against their visitors in this fixture.
Even without attending fans, Celta ended 2020/21 as one of just four teams to win over 70% of their La Liga (LL) games as home favourites. Even so, don’t expect total dominance from ‘Oz Celestes’, who last won both individual halves of a home league match back in December 2020.
Fellow winless side Cádiz’s start to this LL campaign (D2, L2) has seen them develop their own penchant for late self-destruction. Both defeats so far saw them allow two or more goals against them between the 60th minute and FT, while also conceding three penalties over the two games.
Now amid just their second ever multi-season stint in the top flight of Spanish football, Cádiz look set for a season-long fight to extend their two-season stay. Rediscovering last season’s away form, when they collected more points on the road than at home, could be critical in their survival bid. A draw at Betis to open their away campaign wasn’t a bad start, but having lost five straight H2Hs in Vigo – four by multi-goal margins – doesn’t bode well.
Players to watch: Immovable as Celta’s top scorer since 2015/16, Iago Aspas boasts a personal 50% win rate from 28 prior LL matches to see him net a penalty (W14, D4, L10). Topically, Álvaro Negredo netted a spot-kick in Cádiz’s first road trip of this campaign, making it two straight away games (D2) to see him score inside the opening 15 minutes.
Hot streak: Each of Cádiz’s last six LL away defeats by a one-goal margin have seen the deciding goal arrive inside the first or final 30 minutes.
