Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Sunday’s football game at Estadio Ramon de Carranza pits together Cadiz and Atletico Madrid, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. Despite their anything but brilliant form, Cadiz occupy 11th place in the La Liga standings, and they are on the right track to secure the elite division survival. The Yellow Submarine, though, failed to impress in a 3-0 loss to Sevilla, and we do not believe that they are capable of shocking the league leaders.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, recorded a routine 3-1 win over Valencia at the weekend, with the team extending their winning run in Primera Division to seven games. Los Rojiblancos are determined to regain the domestic trophy, and seeing that Diego Simeone can count on key players for Sunday’s showdown, away win should be considered. In the first half of the season Atletico Madrid rolled over Cadiz 4-0.
Highlighted Player (Alvaro Gimenez):
Alvaro Gimenez is a product of Elche football school who plays for fellow La Liga side Cadiz as a forward. Alvaro played for several Spanish clubs in the past, including Elche, Valencia B, Torrellano, Mallorca, Alcorcon, Almeria, before joining Birmingham City in the 2019/20 season.
After scoring only three goals in 24 appearances for the Blues in the Championship, Alvaro Gimenez returned to Spain at the end of the season, signing a deal with La Liga newcomers Cadiz. The Spanish attacker made his debut with the “Yellow Submarine” on October 4, 2020 in a 1-1 draw with Granada. His main position is centre-forward, but he is used as both left and right winger as well.
Gimenez’s preferred foot is left, and his contract with Cadiz should expire on June 30, 2023. The Cadiz attacker has three caps with the Spain U17 team, but he has yet to earn a call-up for the senior team.
Highlighted Team (Atletico Madrid):
Atletico Madrid are a Spanish team that plays in Primera Division (La Liga). Los Rojiblancos or los Colchoneros play their home matches at Estadio Vicente Calderon, which holds up to 54,960 spectators. Atletico Madrid have won 10 La Liga titles, but they have yet to lift the European Cup (Champions League) trophy.
Los Rojiblancos have won 10 Copa del Rey (Spanish Cup) trophies and it has to be noted that they defeated their bitter local rivals Real Madrid in the 2012/2013 Spanish Cup final. The rivalry between the two capital clubs is pretty big and El Madrileno is regarded as one of the most exciting derbies in the world football.
Atletico Madrid played two Champions League finals under Diego Simeone, but they failed to beat Real Madrid in the title games (2013/2014 and 2015/2016). However, the Argentine tactician helped Atletico Madrid win the La Liga trophy in 2014 and, no doubt, he is one of the most successful coaches in the history of the capital club.
