Cadiz vs Granada Betting Tips : Draw

Riding high on the euphoria from their sensational two-goal, unanswered triumph against Atletico Madrid back on March 9th, breaking their daunting 23-game winless streak, proved to be short-lived for the Cadiz squad, as Real Sociedad swiftly brought them back down to earth with a stinging 0-2 defeat in San Sebastian.

Despite that, the Yellow Sumbarine has shown visible signs of progress since Mauricio Pellegrino took the helm, as they have put a respectable eight points on the board from as many league contests under the Argentine's bat, marking a drastic turnaround from their lackulster previous spell with just 8 points from 17 outings.

Sitting just below the danger line with a five-point gap from safety, Cadiz is aware that Friday's showdown against a fellow struggler presents the perfect opportunity to boost their chances of survival in the top-flight, but they are troubled by their inability this season to turn draws into victories, holding a record-breaking 13 shared outcomes.

This season's LaLiga draw specialists are set to take on second-from-bottom Granada, who made the swift decision to part ways with Uruguayan manager Alexander Medina during the international break after just 14 gameweeks due to dismal results, although by chance, he managed to guide his "former" side to a routine 2-0 victory over Cadiz in the reverse fixture.

Finding themselves in a desperate position with a staggering 14-point gap to safety, albeit with a game in hand, the Nazaries have no intention of waving the "white flag" in their battle for survival in LaLiga, especially after appointing Jose Ramon Sandoval as their new manager, a man who once rescued them in the 2014-15 season.

This time around, the 55-year-old tactician Sandoval will face an exceptionally tough challenge to work his magic and pull the team out of the bottom three, considering that Granada not only enters this match with nine straight winless outings but also grapples with unprecedented road woes, securing no wins from their first 14 top-flight trips.

Despite holding the most dreadful record away from home, picking up a paltry two points on foreign soil this term (D2, L12), the Nazaries will hold faith that they can achieve a positive outcome with their new boss at the helm, having been beaten by Cadiz only once in their last eight H2H's.

Admittedly, most of the pair's clashes have ended in a share of the spoils, a total of five times in that squence, including three straight draws at Nuevo Mirandilla, and we foresee the trend of indecisive outcomes continuing on Friday between these strugglers, as both sides' mutual desire to avoid defeat will make the match highly tense.
