Celta Vigo will invite Cadiz to the Estadio Municipal de Balaídos in La Liga action on Monday. Both teams head into the match on a ten-game winless run in the league.

Cadiz, on the other hand, were held to a 1-1 draw by Mallorca last time around in an away game. Rubén Alcaraz's 12th-minute opener was canceled out by Abdón Prats in added time of the first half.

El Submarino Amarillo have just two wins to their name in La Liga this season, with both coming in home games. They have been in poor form in their travels in 2023, with just two wins to their name. They have failed to score in six of their last ten away games in the league and might struggle here.
