Barcelona vs Cadiz: Another 4-0 win for the Blaugrana?

Betis and Real Sociedad played out a draw in this round of fixtures which, of course, worked to the advantage of their rivals, including Barcelona. Atletico, on the other hand, snatched victory from Espanyol to level the scores with the Catalans. No matter how Sevilla and Real Madrid play out, it's clear that the battle for a top-four spot is in full swing and Barcelona need the points. Especially as the Blaugrana's opponents are not top-flight side Cadiz, and the game will take place at the Camp Nou.

Barcelona

Just when it looked like Barcelona were close to a European trophy, the Blaugrana lost on home soil to Eintracht 2-3 and dropped out of the second most important European competition. It was a disappointing season, and the last thing we need is to fall out of position in the top-four of La Liga. Barcelona are in the second position in the Primera, ahead of Sevilla and Atletico Madrid on goal difference. Directly in the Spanish championship, the Catalans' recent statistics are remarkable, with five wins in their last five games, Barça are the best team in the division in this period. The main thing is to keep it up. But Barça's home statistics are fifth in the division, with 10 wins with two losses in 14 games and 32 points scored.

Cadiz

After a sensational win over Villarreal, Cadiz played two games in La Liga: an away draw with Valencia and a 1-2 home defeat at the hands of Betis. However, it should be noted that in the match against Sevilla, Cadiz were very close to a draw, leading 1-0 from 58th to 78th minute, but eventually lost after conceding to Tello and Iglesias. Iglesias came on as a substitute 25 minutes before he scored. Ahead of Monday's match, Cadiz are 18th, which means they are in the relegation zone. There is only one point behind Mallorca who are sitting in 17th place. The away statistics for Cadiz are 12th in the division, +3=5-7, 13:23 goal difference.

Expert Betting Tips

The departure from the Europa League is a painful blow to the Catalans and Xavi. The young Barça coach dreamed of finishing the season with at least one trophy, but as we can see, it was not fated. Now, the Catalans' main task is to retain their place in the top four, preferably second. The Blaugrana need to finish above Atletico and Sevilla and to do that they need to win their remaining games, including Cadiz at home. The midweek game played in midweek is a minus factor for Barça, however, Barça will play in the championship not even on the weekend, but on Monday. I.e., the hosts had enough time to recover, which means we are betting on the negative handicap of the favorite. H1 (-1.75) for 1.96.

In the match at the Camp Nou against Eintracht, Barcelona conceded three goals. However, in La Liga, the Barça have not conceded a goal in their last three games, against Athletic, Osasuna, and Sevilla. It is unlikely that the attack of the South is stronger than that of either of the aforementioned teams. We think that the Catalans have a good chance to continue their home winning streak in the Primera. W1 to nil for 2.04.

After being relegated from the Europa League, we expect a reaction from the Catalans. There has been plenty of time to rest and recover, and Barcelona have been fond of the 4-0 scoreline of late. It was 4-0 against Athletic and Osasuna. We reckon that Barcelona will beat Cadiz 4-0 in the closing match of the 32nd round of the Spanish La Liga for 12.00.
