Espanyol in awful form

Espanyol are the worst team in La Liga right now having lost their last six games on the spin - which is not quite the run of form you want heading into a relegation battle.

While Espanyol sit second bottom, Cadiz are four points and three places above them, just outside the drop-zone, with the chance to put some daylight between themselves and the bottom three.

Not that Cadiz are anything to write home about themselves, but they have only lost twice in seven games and are unbeaten in three on the road including a draw at Sociedad and a surprising win last time out at Betis.

So it's perhaps a tad surprising that Espanyol are home favourites here at 21/20 given the run they're on, while Cadiz are 29/10 to make it back-to-back away wins.

Both teams should score

Scoring goals hasn't been too much of a problem for Espanyol, with goals scored in their last 15 La Liga games on the bounce - but it's been keeping them out at the other end that's the problem.

They've not kept a clean sheet since February - conceding at least twice in seven straight games and in fact letting goals in during 12 of the 14 halves of football they've played during that span.

Cadiz have also found it easy to score against the teams around them, with goals in seven of the eight games they've played against the current bottom seven.

So we'll back both teams to score here and also over 2.5 goals as neither side are too hot defensively so there should be plenty of chances.

We'll also look at the cards market here as Cadiz have had more than their fair share this season - with only three teams being booked as many times as them.

And teams playing against Espanyol have seen the second-most cards dished out in the division, so we'll take Cadiz to get over 3.5 cards here, as they've done twice in the last five games, with two more games seeing them shown three.
