Cadiz and Levante go head-to-head at the Estadio Ramón de Carranza as the 2021/22 La Liga season gets underway this weekend.
Cadiz marked their return to Spain’s top-flight with a respectable 12th-place finish last season despite conceding the division’s second-highest average of 1.53 goals per La Liga fixture. Bracing themselves for the second consecutive top-tier campaign for the first time since 1992/93, ‘El Submarino Amarillo’ will be aiming to improve upon a paltry goalscoring average of 0.94 goals per league match last term. But before getting too excited, Cadiz may first want to snap a run of 12 consecutive defeats in their opening game of a new La Liga campaign. So manager Álvaro Cervera will be entrusted with carrying Cadiz to a long-awaited Matchday 1 success after drawing all five of his managerial encounters against Levante in competitive action (90 mins only).
Meanwhile, a positive start to the new league campaign could help Levante erase the memory of a disappointing 2020/21 season that saw them finish 14th in the standings, with their worst point tally since returning to the top-flight in 2017/18 (41). A handful of decent additions in the summer are here to help the ‘Granotes‘ bring their frustrating eight-match winless streak in La Liga to an end (D3, L5), a run that includes a 2-2 home draw with this opposition on the final weekend of last season. However, this is unlikely to be plain sailing for Levante, considering they have won only two of their previous 15 La Liga opening day matches (D5, L8). Another statistic conspiring against them is that they concluded the last league season on an underwhelming four-game winless streak on the road (D1, L3), conceding 2+ goals on three of those occasions.
