As both Cadiz and Sporting Gijon are likely to adopt a cautious approach in Friday’s clash, we predict a 1-1 draw. The Yellow Submarine face Gijon with a lengthy injury list still limiting Sergioâs options, as Caicedo, Gonzalez, Kovacevic, Suso and Fali all remain sidelined. Even so, Cadiz showed resilience in their recent 2â2 draw with Deportivo La Coruna, extending a run that now includes 1.20 PPG and a 60% BTTS rate overall. At home, the Andalusians average 1.25 goals per match but concede at a similar rate, and their 1.39 expected goals at home shows they tend to create enough to trouble mid-table opponents.Los Rojiblancos, on the other hand, travel to Andalusia without suspended defender Brian Oliván after his red card in the 3â1 loss to Malaga, though their away form has been a bright spotâ1.80 PPG, 60% win rate, and 0.80 goals conceded on average, supported by 60% away clean sheets. Their defensive discipline on the road contrasts with their overall inconsistency, but their 1.14 expected goals away suggests they can still carve out meaningful chances.
