All eyes will be on Estadio El Sardinero as Racing Santander host Almeria in an exciting La Liga 2 derby. As los Racinguistas do not seem to be at their sharpest, we predict a 2-1 away win. Santander will be eager to bounce back after a heavy 6-2 defeat to Andorra, though they remain strong at home, winning 80% of their last five matches and averaging 2.40 points per game. However, defensive issues are evident, conceding 2.00 goals per match, and they will be without suspended defender Jorge Salinas.
Almeria, on the other hand, travel to Cantabria in excellent form, having beaten Leganes 2-1 to continue their push near the top of the table. Despite the absence of experienced forward Leo Baptistao due to suspension, they boast an impressive 2.20 points per game and a potent attack averaging 2.10 goals scored. While their away form is less dominant (1.40 PPG), they remain a dangerous side.
Given Almeria's better overall form (2.20 PPG) and Santander's poor defensive display against Andorra FC, we predict Away Win, alongside Both Teams to Score, and Over 2.5 goals (Santander games average 3.70 goals, indicating an open match).
This Segunda Division match will be played on Sunday 12 April 2026 at 20:00.
