Atletico Madrid vs Cadiz Prediction
Atletico Madrid are currently fifth in the league, having won four of their first six league games. Striker Alvaro Morata has enjoyed a bright start to his season, scoring five league goals already. However, the 30-year-old received a red card in the game against Osasuna.
Atletico Madrid had a quiet summer transfer window, with the likes of Caglar Soyuncu and Cesar Azpilicueta joining on free transfers. But Diego Simeone's men will be feeling confident, especially after the comprehensive derby win over Real Madrid. With Real Madrid lacking a top-quality goalscorer, Atletico Madrid could very well be the club to challenge Barcelona for the league title this season.
Cadiz, on the other hand, are ninth in the league at the moment. They have won two of their first seven league games, and have won one of their last five. Their most expensive purchases this summer were Mali international Rominigue Kouame and Argentine midfielder Gonzalo Escalante, who arrived from Troyes and Lazio for €2.5 million each.
Atletico Madrid have enjoyed a good start to their league campaign and will be the favorites against most sides in La Liga. With the likes of Antoine Griezmann and Saul in excellent form, Atletico Madrid should have enough to emerge victorious here.
