Last weekend they won the derby against Atletico Madrid 2:0. Cadiz are currently miles away from such highs. With 13 points, they are only in 18th place in the table and an uncomfortable Christmas could await Cadiz should they suffer a defeat against Real.

Real Madrid Form & Balance Check
The second half of 2021 could hardly have gone better for the Madrid royals. Especially in the domestic La Liga, the men of coach Carlo Ancelotti are several points ahead of the competition. They already have an eight-point lead over their closest rivals, Sevilla. However, the Andalusians still have a game up their sleeve. Last Sunday was the big summit meeting with Atletico Madrid. In the derby, Real showed a calm performance, as they had done throughout the entire match. Benzema and Asenjo provided the goals here.
Will the title be won in the top division?
In addition to the great performances in the league, Real were also convincing in the Champions League. Apart from the embarrassing defeat against Tiraspol, the royals were able to leave their mark on every other match. Now the big showdown with Paris Saint-Germain awaits in the round of the last 16 teams. This duel will also bring about a reunion with Sergio Ramos. The long-time Real captain moved to Paris last summer.
Real Madrid Facts & Analysis
– Won last ten competitive games
– Last won 2-0 against Atletico
– 8 points ahead of Sevilla
Cadiz form & balance check
A whole thankless task awaits Cadiz so close to Christmas. The Andalusians have to face Real Madrid on Sunday evening. Admittedly, there are certainly easier tasks at the moment than beating the royals. If we take a closer look at Cadiz, the small club from Andalusia is not yet quite convincing. After 16 matchdays, they are on 13 points and thus deep in the bottom of the table. It would be tantamount to a minor sensation if they could at least pick up a point against Real.
Poor defence
Karim Benzema and Vinicius Jr will surely be delighted with the task at hand. Cadiz have been known to concede a goal or two in their 16 games so far. Cadiz have already conceded a total of 31 goals and that should not necessarily make the task any easier against Real, who are in good form. One of Cadiz’s best-known players is the veteran Negredo. The former Valencia FC player should, in the best case scenario, fire Cadiz to a relegation spot.
Cadiz facts & analysis
– Only one win from last five games
– Last played 1-1 against Granada
– Already conceded 31 goals
Predicted line-up – last updated 17 Dec 2021
Real coach Carclo Ancelotti will not change anything about his first eleven. Why should he, given that the Royals have won all of their last ten games. Above all, the ageing midfield of Kroos, Modric and Casemiro are playing as if they have fallen into a fountain of youth. Up front, Benzema and Vinicius are back in action. Upcoming opponents from Cadiz will be looking to surprise with a classic 4-4-2.
