As a new coach, Sevilla will debut this Wednesday, January 3, in the Round of 16 of the Spanish King’s 2017/2018 season. From 18h (Brasília time) will face the Cadiz. The game will be held at the Ramon de Carranza stadium in Cadiz.
At this stage of the match definitions are made in round-trip matches. The second game is scheduled for Seville on 11 January. If there is a need, goal balance and goal scored away from home can be used as tiebreaker criteria.

The recent performance of Cadiz
The Cadiz, who has had his days in the Primera División, tries to return to the elite of Spanish football. You’re doing very well in this campaign. Undefeated ten games ago (eight wins and two draws), which includes a King Cup match, is the runner-up of the competition. He has 36 points (ten wins, six draws and four losses).
In LaLiga 2, champion and vice get direct access to the First Division. The leadership is of Huesca, with three points more. Who finishes between the third and sixth place has chances of playing a place in the recap. In this case, the margin of comfort of Cadiz in comparison with Lugo, seventh place, is three points.
In the King’s Cup, the team debuted in the second round, still in single game. At home, he dispatched Almeria 1-0. In the sequence, made the Osasuna of victim by the same marker, again in their domains.
The big surprise was reserved for the eighth-finals when, at home, took 2 to 1 of Betis, the Sevilla alviverde. However, he managed to reverse the disadvantage by scoring 5 to 3 in the opponent’s stadium.

The current form of Seville

The poor results recently made Sevilla leave the humanitarian grounds aside and fired coach Eduardo Berizzo. He stayed about two months apart to treat prostate cancer, but when he returned he could not score as many points as expected. In the last four matches, Sevilla tied twice and was defeated twice.
The drop of water was the defeat for Real Sociedad, in the stadium of the rival, by 3 to 1. The confrontation was carried out on December 20. The board, taking advantage of the stoppage of the tournament for the Christmas and New Year festivities, decided to change the command by placing the Italian coach Vicenzo Montella at the Argentine coach’s post, fired shortly before for failing to produce the expected results at Milan.
Having no deep knowledge of the squad, Montella is expected to take advantage of Wednesday’s game as a kind of training before the Betis Classic which is scheduled for Saturday, January 6.
Also involved in the European Champions League, the game is not only important for the rivalry but also to prevent Sevilla from distancing themselves from the qualifying zone for the next edition of the international competition. The block is closed by Real Madrid, which has 31 points and one more game to hold, in fourth position. Sevilla are fifth with 29 points (nine wins, two draws and six losses).

History of the bouts between Cadiz and Sevilla
In five times that they were face to face, the confrontation had two victories of the Seville, two equalities and a success of the Cadiz. The most recent game happened in 2014.

Having a classic ahead, a game like this certainly would not be able to motivate the Sevilla players. However, with the technical debut, the situation changes and makes the visitor the best guess for the confrontation. It has a price of 1.50 in Rivalo. Draw gives return of 4.20 and success of the owners of the house pays 6.50 for 1.
