Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Racing Santander and Eibar face each other at Estadio El Sardinero in the opening match of Sunday’s program. Santander have been in a fine form of late, with the team beating both Granada and Ibiza, while sharing the spoils with Mirandes. Both German Sanchez and Ruben Gonzalez are sidelined with injuries, while Pablo Bobadilla is a major doubt.
Los Armeros, on the other hand, aim to stay in the automatic promotion berth. Eibar are eager to put an end to their seven-game winless run, but beating the in-form Racinguistas on the road is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Midfielder Matheus Pereira misses out through suspension, while defender Imanol Garcia de Albeniz is out of contention with injury. In the first half of the season Eibar defeated Racing Santander 2-1.
