Anthony Lozano put the visitors up after 38 minutes before Alfonso Espino doubled Cadiz’s lead five minutes later. Although Santi Mina pulled one back just after the hour mark, Cadiz ultimately held on.
Defeat meant Celta Vigo have claimed just one point from their opening five matches and sit third bottom in the table.
