Racing Santander will be looking to bounce back from a 1-0 defeat to Getafe when they take on Elche at El Sardinero. The hosts have been strong on home soil recently, winning 50% of their last 10 home matches and averaging 2.50 goals per game. They also played out a thrilling 2-2 draw with Villarreal in their first home outing of the season. However, Manu Hernando is a major doubt after picking up a knock against Getafe. Racing have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last 10 matches, while 83% of their recent home games have seen both teams score.
Elche, meanwhile, were thrashed 5-0 by Barcelona at the weekend, although they showed encouraging signs in the first half. The visitors have struggled on the road, winning none of their last three away matches and keeping no clean sheets in those games. Their away BTTS rate stands at 100%, suggesting another entertaining encounter could be on the cards. Cepeda and Neto are pushing for starting spots, with no fresh injury concerns.
As Racing's home advantage could prove decisive against an Elche side that has struggled away, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (83% of Racing's last 10 home matches have seen BTTS, while their home games average 4.00 goals).
This Primera Division match will be played on Friday 28 August 2026 at 18:00.
