Granada CF has confirmed that on Wednesday August 5 it will play its second pre‑season friendly against Cádiz at the Barceló Montecastillo Golf complex in Jerez de la Frontera. The match, kicking off at 10:00, is part of the training camp the club has been holding for four days and will be streamed live on Granada's official platform.
What does this friendly mean for Granada CF?
The game gives the rojiblancos' coach a chance to fine‑tune tactics before the Segunda División starts. After a streak of five straight defeats (LLLLL) and sitting 14th with 48 points (12 wins, 12 draws, 18 losses), any minutes on the pitch are vital to break the slump. The side has scored 50 goals while conceding 56, highlighting defensive work needed ahead of the campaign.
How does it fit into the pre‑season schedule?
This friendly follows the Granada City Trophy against Betis, played on July 25 at 20:00 in Los Cármenes. The plan includes several tune‑up matches, though no other opponent has been announced yet. Streaming the Cádiz game online will let fans watch the performance of recent signings like goalkeeper Jokin Ezkieta and forward Vladys, who arrived after the club’s capital increase.
What history exists between the two clubs?
Granada and Cádiz met last summer in Chiclana, ending 1‑1 after Roger equalised in the final minutes. In that match the rojiblancos played most of the second half with ten men after Anthony Obi was sent off. In the league, Granada beat Cádiz away after a goalless draw at Los Cármenes, showing the rivalry can be tightly contested.
What comes after the friendly?
Following the August 5 match, Granada CF will return to Granada for final training sessions before the season opener. The club aims to improve its standing, currently 34 points behind leaders Racing Santander, and to stop the recent losing run. Supporters can follow all summer activities on the official website, where any last‑minute signings will also be announced.
Key fact: Granada CF's most recent official result was a 1‑2 loss to Sporting Gijón on May 30, 2026, underscoring the need to find a winning formula before the next weekend.
