Osasuna vs Cadiz Prediction and Betting Tips | February 17th 2024
The action continues in round 25 of the Spanish La Liga as Osasuna and Cadiz go head-to-head at the El Sadar Stadium on Saturday.
Having failed to win the last 11 meetings between the sides, Mauricio Pellegrino’s men will head into the weekend looking to get one over the hosts and kickstart their surge from the relegation zone.
Osasuna returned to winning ways last Saturday when they scraped a 1-0 victory over Real Sociedad at Reale Arena.
Prior to that, Jagoba Arrasate’s side were on a two-game losing run, suffering consecutive defeats against Barcelona and Celta Vigo respectively.
Osasuna have now picked up five wins in their 24 La Liga matches so far while losing 11 and claiming five draws to collect 29 points and sit 11th in the league table.
Cadiz, on the other hand, suffered a fresh blow in their quest to beat the drop as they fell to a 2-0 loss against Real Betis at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla.
Pellegrino’s men have now failed to win their last 13 games in all competitions, claiming seven draws and losing six, including a 2-1 defeat against Arandina in the Copa del Rey on December 7.
With 17 points from 24 games, Cadiz are currently 18th in the La Liga table, three points behind 17th-placed Celta Vigo just above the relegation zone.
