Round number 4 in LaLiga brings Athletic Bilbao and Cadiz face to face. The match at Estadio San Mames takes place on Thursday.
Athletic Bilbao
It comes after the success of Eibar; won 1-2 (the 2 goals of the team prepared by Gaizka Garitano were scored by Unai Lopez).
It is the first victory he gets in the current LaLiga season.
Thursday’s match with Cadiz is the first one they play at home this season (the previous 2 games were played away).
In the previous season of LaLiga he had better evolutions on his own field than away; out of a total of 51 points, 31 were obtained from home matches and 20 from away matches.
In the 19 matches he played at home, he scored only 14 goals (an average of less than 1 goal scored / match).
Cadiz
After the failure with Sevilla; although she took the lead in the 48th minute, she was defeated 1-3, the last 2 goals of Sevilla being scored at the end of the match.
It is the 2nd failure he suffers in the previous 3 LaLiga matches. In all the 3 games he has played so far in LaLiga, over 1.5 goals have been scored. Although he has reached the age of 35, Alvaro Negredo (formerly of Sevilla, Manchester City, Valencia and Besiktas) seems to be a key figure for Alvaro Cervera; the Spanish striker has been a starter in all 3 matches played so far (he scored 1 goal).

Football Prediction of the Day Athletic Bilbao vs Cadiz
I am of the opinion that the considerable difference in value and the advantage of one’s own field will be decisive for Athletic Bilbao to impose itself. The host team has the experience of LaLiga matches.
Cadiz is a newly promoted.
He had a fairly modest start to the season, losing 2 of the 3 matches he played.
