Racing Santander form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the La Liga 2 this season. Racing Santander have only managed 2 wins, 9 draws and 6 losses from their games here at Campos de Sport de El Sardinero. With eight home La Liga 2 games in a row without a win, the Santander fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Extremadura UD game long ago, can be stopped today.

Santander manager J. Oltra Castañer and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Ponferradina (placed 8th) in the La Liga 2. Preceding that match was a defeat to Tenerife (1-2).

The manager J. Oltra Castañer will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Extremadura UD in only four days.

The Santander fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 21 in 17 matches. On the other hand, Santander have conceded 23 goals.
