Venue: Campos de Sport de El Sardinero (22222 seats)

Racing Santander hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 29 points and a 22nd position in the La Liga 2 table. Visiting Tenerife holds 13th place with 40 pts.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

These teams have little in common geographically as Tenerife have to travel 2300 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Racing Santander form and stats

Racing Santander's struggle is real here at Campos de Sport de El Sardinero with only 15 points collected from 16 La Liga 2 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-9-5. With seven 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 drew their last game, 0-0 away at Girona (placed 5th). Preceding that match was the home game against Lugo that was lost 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 Ponferradina in only three days.

The Santander fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 20 in 16 matches. Santander have conceded 21 in these home matches.

Tenerife form and stats

Tenerife have only collected 15 points from their away games in the La Liga 2, after 4-3-9 (16 played). With two straight losses from their last two away games, Tenerife are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Tenerife aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 193 league minutes without a goal. N. Sipcic was the last player to find the net.

Tenerife delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Malaga (placed 14th) in their previous match; a La Liga 2 game. Prior to that match, the Tenerife manager R. Baraja Vegas faced defeat when travelling to Fuenlabrada and losing 0-1.

A quick return to home after this game, as Tenerife are hosting Mirandes in the La Liga 2 only three days away.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Tenerife have scored 18 goals in 16 league games away. Tenerife have conceded 21 goals in these away matches.
