Racing Santander vs Las Palmas Prediction and Betting Tips 18 January 2026

Racing Santander aim to put an end to their winless run in La Liga 2, but given Las Palmas' fine form, our prediction points toward a 1-1 draw. Los Racinguistas return to El Sardinero after a chaotic 3-2 defeat to Zaragoza, and they will be without suspended defender Alvaro Mantilla – a significant blow for a back line already conceding 1.40 goals per game at home. Santander’s overall numbers remain quite positive, averaging 1.80 points per game and scoring consistently with 1.80 goals per match, but defensive instability has produced a high 70% BTTS rate and just 20% clean sheets.

Las Palmas head into the match in strong form, unbeaten in five (DDWWD) and boasting one of the league’s best defensive records. They concede only 0.60 goals per game, home or away, and keep clean sheets in 40% of matches. Their away scoring is modest (0.80 goals per match), yet they remain efficient, picking up 1.60 points per game on the road. Expected goals also favour the visitors slightly, with Las Palmas allowing only 1.12 xGA in away fixtures. The H2H history is one-sided: Las Palmas have won 5 of the last 9, while Santander have never beaten them in that span. With Santander weakened defensively and the visitors more balanced, the edge leans toward the Canary Islanders.

Given 70% BTTS for Santander and 40–60% for Las Palmas, Both Teams to Score market seems appealing, with additional value on Over 1.5 goals and Draw.

This Segunda Division match will be played on Sunday 18 January 2026 at 15:15.
