It’s a huge battle between two relegation-threatened teams this weekend in La Liga as Getafe travel to Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla to Cadiz in the 25th round of the 2022/23 La Liga season.
Both sides come into this tie separated by one point after 24 rounds of games. They are both sandwiched in the middle of a relegation logjam involving seven teams separated by just three points.
But Cadiz have the advantage in the run-in given that their next three matches all come against clubs one point below them in the standings (Getafe, Almería, Sevilla).
They come into this tie with confidence, given that they currently have the league’s third-longest home undefeated run (W4, D5). Furthermore, the hosts have also won their last three home games – their longest La Liga win streak since 1990/91, so they will fancy their chances of taking maximum points here.

Getafe will hope to continue their unbeaten run against Cadiz when they travel to Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla on Friday. The visitors, who are unbeaten in their last three games against their hosts (W1, D2), gave their survival chances a boost last time courtesy of a 3-2 home win over Girona.
The win made it two wins in three games for Quique Sánchez Flores’ side, who also scored 2+ goals in a La Liga game for the first time since December. Their target will be to build on that win and end their recent winless record away from home. Like Cadiz, most of the visitors’ successes have come at home, with their most recent La Liga away win coming last October (D1, L4 since).
That said, given the low firepower of both teams, we should expect a low-scoring affair with under 2.5 goals scored.
