Cadiz CF
Cadiz, a struggling team, is seeking improvement after winning just two of their 18 league matches, leaving them two points clear of 18th-placed Celta Vigo. They have played out five consecutive top-flight draws, including a goalless affair against Real Sociedad. They have ended their 10-game wait for a La Liga clean sheet, but Sergio Gonzalez will be looking for solutions in the final third. Cadiz are currently the joint-lowest scorers in the top flight, with just 14 league goals this season. They will be confident of picking up at least a point from Monday’s encounter after avoiding defeat in each of their last six competitive meetings with Granada. They are currently in 17th place in the La Liga standings.
Cadiz cannot use injured Roger Marti due to injury, and Ivan Alejo is suspended due to his 10th yellow card. Ruben Sobrino could start his fifth league match of 2023-24, following Alejo’s one-match ban.
Granada CF
Granada is facing a difficult start to the new year after a poor start to the season. They only have one win, five draws, and 12 losses in 18 La Liga matches. The new manager, Alexander Medina, has not been successful in boosting the team’s fortunes. In fact, Granada only have one draw and three defeats in his four games. Granada’s final game before the winter break saw consecutive defeats to Celta Vigo and Sevilla without troubling the scorers. The main focus for improvement will be at the opposite end of the pitch, as they have conceded 40 goals in La Liga this season, only allowing more than Almeria. Despite their defensive struggles, Granada is the only team to keep a clean sheet in the Spanish top flight in 2023-24. They have the chance to change this statistic against Cadiz.
Granada’s Raul Fernandez and Jesus Vallejo are sidelined due to back issues and hamstring injuries respectively. Albanian Myrto Uzuni, currently the club’s joint top scorer in La Liga, is expected to return to the starting lineup.

Cadiz CF (2.5)
