THE PREDICTION
Owner Paul Lim being at war with supporters and having a summer fire-sale without any replacements was always going to lead to this situation: Valencia in relegation battle. A squad that has been rinsed of their major talents relying on potentially very good but still not yet players like Goncalo Guedes, Carles Soler and Kang-In Lee is worrying. Guedes is out of this one anyway due to a red card against Granada in their 2-1 defeat. They are now winless since their anomalous 4-1 victory over Real and it isn’t a surprise. They have a good coach in Javi Gracia so some victories are inevitable but they simply don’t have a big or good squad. They come up against a Cadiz side who have come back into La Liga with a style of play that has some functional counter-attacking to exploit the low-scoring encounters they are involved in due to a rigidity and solidity. Despite being winless in four now, their record against the so-called bigger clubs; especially away from home, has been exceptional. Wins against Barcelona and away at Athletic and Real Madrid highlight that. Cadiz will back themselves to frustrate Valencia and really heap misery on the giants.
