Cadiz vs Levante Prediction

Cadiz have not been particularly prolific in front of the goal this term. They have averaged less than a goal per game, with just 15 goals from 18 games. That statistic represents the least goals scored by any side in the top 10.

Meanwhile, Levante have been in better form recently, recording three wins in their last five outings. They have scored 23 goals but have conceded 24.

Given Cadiz's poor home form this season, we think a win might be out of their reach. A draw looks like the most likely outcome.

Prediction: Cadiz 1-1 Levante.
