Our prediction for this Primera Division match:
Espanyol and Cadiz take on each other at RCDE Stadium in a highly-anticipated relegation six-pointer. Los Periquitos are eager to escape the relegation zone, and a win over Cadiz will see them put an end to their six-match losing run. Both Calero and Gil are back from suspensions, while Brian Olivan remains on the sidelines with a muscle injury. You should know that the Catalans are eyeing their only fourth home win of the process.
The Yellow Submarine, on the other hand, failed to make life difficult for Real Madrid in their last league match (0-2), with the team remaining in the danger zone. Cadiz, though, did well to beat Betis in their last away fixture, which is probably the main reason why we predict they will grab something from Friday’s showdown. As for the away team, Iza Carcelen returns from suspension, while both Gonzalo Escalante and Brian Ocampo should miss out through injuries.
