Racing Santander return to La Liga action after a mixed start to the campaign, currently sitting 13th in the standings. Jose Lopez's side has shown a distinct contrast between their performances at home and on the road. At Santander, they remain undefeated, drawing 2-2 with Villarreal and beating Elche 3-2, with all five of their home goals coming in the first half. However, away form has been a struggle following losses to Getafe and Rayo Vallecano. Heading into this clash, the hosts will be without injured duo Eriksson and Martin.
Form and H2H
Alaves enter this fixture in strong shape, claiming six wins and three draws across their last ten matches while allowing just under 0.7 goals per game. Conversely, Racing Santander have struggled defensively over their last ten games, conceding nearly 1.9 goals per match. Head-to-head history also favors the visitors, as Alaves remain undefeated in their last five meetings against Racing Santander, securing two victories alongside three draws.
Best bet
Although Racing Santander have shown attacking intent early in home matches, their defensive lapses make them vulnerable against a organized opponent. Alaves possess far greater consistency and defensive resilience overall. Backing Alaves with a Handicap (0) offers strong coverage for this matchup, protecting the stake in the event of a draw.
