Barcelona faces Cadiz at the Montjuic in the Catalans’ first home game for the season in La Liga. Stay with us because we will preview this match in our banker bets soccer predictions for today.
Barca had a negative start of the 2023/24 season as they only got a draw during the visit to Getafe at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez. Xavi’s team also finished the game with 10 men as Raphinha got sent off in the first half. Xavi himself didn’t finish the match as well – he was sent off by the referee after the break.
Now Xavi has to replace Raphinha against Cadiz. According to some sources, he’s will choose between Ez Abde and Lamine Yamal to start the game. This means that players like Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres will remain on the bench once again. Their situation at the club don’t look very bright at the moment.
The new signings Oriol Romeu and Ilkay Gundogan started against Getafe in midfield. We expect to see them starting against Cadiz as well.
Cadiz are ahead of Barcelona in the standings as they kicked off their campaign with a 1-0 win against Deportivo Alaves at home. The only goal in the game was scored in the 7th minute when Fede San Emeterio found the net behind Sivera. Meanwhile Javi Hernandez provided the assist for the goal. This way Sergio’s team started the season in the best way possible. Cadiz’ main goal is going to be surviving.
The head coach Sergio could use the same line-up at the Montjuic, but he could also make some minor changes in the starting eleven. Players like Lucas Pires could feature from the start. Gonzalo Escalante can’t play as he got sent off against Alaves.
That’s the banker bets soccer predictions for today for the La Liga clash between Barcelona and Cadiz. Good luck!
