Villarreal vs Cadiz
Spanish La Liga
Date: 24 May 2023, Wednesday
Kick-off at 18:30 UK / 19:30 CET
Venue: Estadio de la Ceramica (Villarreal).
Villarreal stayed in contention for the top-four finish thanks to a super-late winner from Gerard Moreno in the dying minutes of Saturday’s clash against Girona away at Estadi Municipal de Montilivi.
Moreno’s goal gave El Submarino Amarillo a very important 1-2 victory, marking the team’s fourth success in the last five La Liga rounds.
Quique Setien’s men are now still five points behind Real Sociedad in fourth place, a gap they could potentially annul in the remaining three games knowing the Basques have the fixtures against Atletico Madrid and Sevilla upcoming.
Villarreal will be big favorites on Wednesday evening when they play host to relegation-threatened Cadiz in one of the most interesting ties of Matchday No 36 at Estadio de la Ceramica.
Cadiz will also enter the outing in high spirits after claiming a super-important 2-0 victory over direct rivals Real Valladolid in a relegation six-pointer on Friday night at Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla.
Theo Bongonda was the hero with a second-half brace, sending Cadiz up to 16th place in the league standings.
Sergio’s men are now three points above Real Valladolid in the red zone and they will fancy their chances of staying up with the fixtures against Celta Vigo and Elche upcoming in the final two rounds.
Villarreal vs Cadiz Head-to-head
- Cadiz have managed to beat Villarreal just once in the last ten head to head meetings. Five of these ten have, however, ended in draws.

- Both teams were on target just two times in the last seven head to head affairs.
Villarreal vs Cadiz Prediction
Villarreal need a win to continue chasing the Basques in the battle for the Champions League football next season. They are on a streak of four wins and a draw in the last five La Liga matches and we have no other option but to back them to claim the spoils on Wednesday.
To add value to the pick, we will go with Villarreal to win & Both Teams To Score at the 3.10 odds knowing that each of the previous eight outings El Submarino Amarillo played in the league provided goals at both ends.
