Cádiz CF open their Segunda División campaign against Celta Vigo B in a fixture where the two sides arrive in starkly different condition. Formatic's weighted form score awards the visitors 6 out of 10 across their last five outings, a steady mark built on an unbeaten competitive run, while the hosts register just 1.33 out of 10, a very poor rating that reflects four defeats from five across the summer. That 4.67-point form gap is among the wider spreads in the division's opening weekend and it frames a contest between a side struggling to find rhythm and opponents who have carried momentum through the early summer.

Cádiz managed only one win from their last five, a 7-0 friendly victory away to Barbate on 15 July, but the other four fixtures all ended in defeat. Across those five matches they scored 9 and conceded 8, managing a clean sheet in one of the five and finding the net in three. The three most recent outings have all been blanks at home, a sequence that offers little encouragement ahead of a league opener that demands sharper attacking output. That one win came in a club friendly against lower-division opposition and the other four results, including the competitive fixture against Racing, all went the wrong way.

Celta Vigo B have gone five without defeat, recording two wins and three draws since the end of May. They drew 1-1 away to Europa FC in a Primera División RFEF play-off tie on 31 May, won 3-2 at home to the same opponents on 7 June, then drew 0-0 away to Ponferradina on 13 June before beating them 4-1 at home on 20 June. Their most recent outing was a 1-1 draw away to Lugo in a club friendly on 25 July. Over those five matches they scored 9 and conceded 5, kept one clean sheet and scored in four of the five. The 4-1 home win over Ponferradina stands as the sharpest recent performance, a play-off result that secured their place at this level, and the unbeaten sequence through competitive fixtures contrasts sharply with Cádiz's struggles.

The scoring profiles hint at where this fixture may be decided. Celta Vigo B have scored in four of their last five and managed 9 goals across the sample despite three of those matches being tightly contested play-off ties. Cádiz also scored 9 across five, but three of those fixtures returned blanks and seven of the nine came in a single friendly against Barbate. The hosts conceded 8 in five, the visitors 5, and only one of Cádiz's last five produced a clean sheet compared to one from five for Celta Vigo B. The defensive records are similar, but the attacking consistency tilts toward the visitors.

Cádiz begin this Segunda División season at home but arrive in very poor form, a 1.33 rating that reflects repeated setbacks through the summer. Celta Vigo B carry a steady 6 out of 10 built on an unbeaten competitive stretch and a play-off campaign that ended with a 4-1 win. The 4.67-point form gap is substantial and the recent results support it: Cádiz have lost four of five, Celta Vigo B have won two and drawn three. The visitors' ability to score in four of their last five and their unbeaten run through the play-offs suggest they will be difficult to contain, and the hosts' three consecutive home blanks leave them short of the sharpness required to trouble a side arriving with this much confidence.
