Our prediction for this Segunda Division match:
Zaragoza will look to record their third consecutive home win when they take on Racing Santander at Estadio La Romareda. Despite the absences of banned duo Enrique Clemente and Jaume Lopez, Los Blanquillos have shown enough strength at home to be considered favorites in Saturday's encounter. Their attacking unit has been performing well, and they'll look to continue their fine form in front of home fans.
Racing Santander, on the other hand, failed to impress in their 2-1 defeat to Cartagena in their last Segunda Division fixture. While the visitors head into the match without fresh injury concerns, their inconsistency on the road has raised doubts about their ability to challenge Zaragoza. Los Racinguistas will need a significant improvement to grab something from the match. Given Zaragoza's strong home form and Racing's recent struggles, we predict that the visitors are going to return to Santander with their hands empty.
