Cadiz vs Real Sociedad Prediction

El Submarino Amarillo are winless in their last seven games in all competitions, suffering three defeats. Interestingly, they have scored one goal apiece in their last five games. They have failed to score in three of their last five home games in La Liga and might struggle here.

Gonzalo Escalante is a confirmed absentee for head coach Sergio González while David Gil, Jorge Meré, and José Mari are also unlikely to start here. Roger Marti picked up an injury in the draw against Las Palmas and is sidelined for at least three months.

Txuri-Urdin are on a nine-game unbeaten run across all competitions and have suffered just one defeat in their last 14 games. They have won five of their last eight away games, keeping five clean sheets in that period as well.

Imanol Alguacil remains without the services of Ander Barrenetxea and Brais Méndez through injuries while Martin Merquelanz remains a long-term absentee.

The visitors are unbeaten in the 21st century against the hosts and have registered four wins in a row in their away games. They have lost just once in their last 14 games in all competitions.

With that in mind and considering the contrast in form between the two teams, we back the visitors to eke out a narrow win.
