Castellon and Cadiz lock horns at the Nou Estadi Castalia on Monday in the Segunda Division for their fourth round of the 2024-25 season. Back in the second tier after three years, the Albinegres have seen a sluggish start to life.
They were beaten by Eibar in their opening game followed by a 0-0 draw with Oviedo. On matchday three, the side finally picked up their first win, upsetting Burgos 2-0 on the road.
Douglas Aurelio and Alex Calatrava scored a goal apiece after the hour mark, and within minutes of each other, as Dick Schreuder's side climbed to 12th position in the league table with four points in three games.
Cadiz, however, have faltered big time since returning to the Segunda Division from La Liga. The Yellow Submarine were relegated from the top division last season and their poor run has continued.
Their opening game resulted in a heavy 4-0 loss to Real Zaragoza before seeing a pair of draws to Levante and Tenerife. With just two points in the bag from three games, Paco Lopez's side are down in 19th place, emerging as early favorites for relegation.

- The sides are meeting for the first time in over 14 years.
- Cadiz have lost on each of their last four visits to Nou Estadi Castalia and remain winless in their last five.

Castellon vs Cadiz Prediction
The Orelluts might have struggled, but their visitors are in a much worse position. Their defense has been a point of concern, and the hosts of this game will be looking to pounce on that.
