Racing Santander vs Gijon Prediction & Betting Tips (14 September)

Racing Santander must win to stand any chance of progressing from this tie, and this is something that Racing Santander have managed in six of their previous eight home games in the LaLiga2. Gijon, by way of contrast, have suffered three defeats in four away matches at this level recently, whilst they have triumphed only once in six attempts on the road of late.

Under 2.5 goals have been netted in 14 of the previous 17 Racing Santander home matches in the LaLiga2, so fans of Racing Santander have had to put up with both a lack of entertainment and poor results. Supporters following Gijon on the road have endured a similar experience, with under 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last ten second-tier games.

Gijon have been rock-solid defensively over the course of their previous six LaLiga2 matches, conceding just a single goal on the way to collecting 17 points from a possible 18. Given that both teams have found the net in just one of the last nine league games involving Racing Santander, any deviation from this script would come as a bit of a surprise.
