Huesca and Cadiz get round eight of La Liga 2 underway when they lock horns at the Estadio El Alcoraz on Friday. Paco Lopez’s men head into the weekend on a five-game unbeaten run against the hosts and will be looking to extend this impressive streak.
Huesca were sent back down to earth in the league as they suffered a 1-0 defeat against Mirandes at the Estadio Municipal de Anduva last Saturday. This followed a 4-1 home victory over 10-man Cordoba on September 23 which saw their run of two consecutive defeats come to an end.
Having picked up three back-to-back wins to start the campaign, Huesca have now managed just three points from the subsequent three games and will be looking to find their feet this weekend.
Like the hosts, Cadiz suffered defeat last weekend as they were beaten 2-1 by Eldense at the Estadio Nuevo Mirandilla. Before that, Lopez’s men were on a five-game undefeated run, picking up two wins and three draws since kicking off the campaign with a humbling 4-0 loss against Real Zaragoza in August.
With nine points from the first seven matches, Cadiz are currently 15th in the La Liga 2 standings, three points behind Friday’s hosts in fifth place.
Huesca vs Cadiz Head-To-Head and Key Numbers
- With four wins from the last 10 meetings between the sides, Cadiz hold a slight upper hand in the history of this fixture.
- Huesca have picked up two wins in that time, while the spoils have been shared on four occasions.
- Cadiz are on a five-match unbeaten run against Huesca, claiming three wins and two draws since a 1-0 loss in October 2017.
- Huesca have failed to win six of their last eight home games in the league, losing four and picking up two draws since the start of April.
Huesca vs Cadiz Prediction
After storming into the new campaign, Huesca appear to have run out of steam and will head into the weekend in search of a morale-boosting result.
However, they have failed to get the better of Cadiz in their last five encounters and we expect the visitors to hold out for a share of the spoils.
Prediction: Huesca 1-1 Cadiz
