Prediction: 2-0
Racing Santander
There will be fireworks when Elche and Racing Santander square off against each other at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero in their first meeting in a competitive match since July 2020. Back then Elche defeated Racing Santander 2-1 and los Franjiverdes are seen as favourites to win Saturday’s clash as well. All Cristian Salvador, Alex Martin, and John Donald Chetauya are out of contention with injuries, while Gonzalez Polanco faces race against the clock to bet fit for the match.
Los Racinguistas, on the other hand, have been struggling in front of goal of late, which is yet another reason why we are going to put our money on the hosts. Both Jorge Pombo and Dani Fernandez are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team. It has to be noted that in their last encounter at “Manuel Martinez Valero” Elche recorded a 2-0 win over Racing Santander.
Highlighted Team (Elche):
Established in 1923, Elche is a Spanish club that competes in La Liga. Los Franjiverdes welcome their rivals at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero, the stadium which can hold up to 33,732 spectators. The venue was opened on September 8, 1976.
