Cadiz have turned a corner

Cadiz lost their first five La Liga matches this season without even scoring a goal but the tide has turned and they can no longer be regarded as a soft touch.

They have since lost three of their 14 matches on a run that included a memorable 3-2 victory over Atletico Madrid, so Cadiz shouldn’t be written off at Athletic Bilbao, particularly after their 2-0 weekend win over Real Mallorca.

The visitors are worth backing on the double chance, where punters collect if Cadiz win or draw, as Athletic have lost their last three matches and scored just once in their last five games.

The Basque club have lost two of their last seven at home – against Atletico and Real Madrid – but they could still be vulnerable.

Elche remain winless in the Spanish top flight and have scored just two goals in their last five home games, so back Villarreal to win there without conceding on Saturday.

The Yellow Submarine have taken 13 points from their last five games and have won five away games to nil this term.
