General match analysis
Racing Santander have the home advantage: they have won 2 of their 3 home matches, scoring an average of 2.33 goals, while Valencia have lost 2 of their 3 away fixtures and scored an average of 0.67 goals. The hosts average 4.33 shots on target per home match compared with Valencia’s 2.33 away, and their average xG is 1.45 versus 0.99 for Valencia. Recent form also favours Racing, who have won 2 of their last 5 matches, while Valencia have won just 1. The main concern for the hosts is their defence: they have conceded 18 goals in their last 5 matches, and their opponents’ average xG in Racing’s home games is 1.99. Despite this weakness, Racing’s greater attacking efficiency and Valencia’s struggles to score away from home make a home win the most likely outcome.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Across the season, both teams scored in just 25% of Racing's matches and 33% of Valencia's, well below the league average of 57%. The hosts average 0.5 goals per match and have failed to score in 75% of their games, while the visitors average only 0.67 goals. Recent form points towards BTTS - Yes: Racing averaged 1.8 goals scored and 3.6 conceded across five matches, while Valencia conceded 2.4 goals. Despite this defensive vulnerability, the teams' poor scoring records over the season make it slightly more likely that at least one side will fail to score (BTTS - No).
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals, as Racing’s last 5 matches averaged 5.4 goals, while Valencia’s averaged 3.2. The hosts’ defence conceded an average of 3.6 goals per match over this period, compared with 2.4 for the visitors, which points to at least two goals. This signal is tempered by both teams’ scoring records across the season: Racing average 0.5 goals and Valencia 0.67, although their average xG stands at 1.28 and 0.99 respectively. That makes the Over 1.5 line a stronger proposition than Over 2.5: it landed in 100% of Racing’s and 60% of Valencia’s last 5 matches, while Over 2.5 goals has occurred in only 50% and 33% of their matches this season.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
A draw at half-time is the most likely outcome: Racing were level at the break in 2 of their 4 home matches, while Valencia were level at half-time in 2 of their 3 away matches. The hosts failed to score before the break in those matches, while the visitors averaged just 0.33 first-half goals away from home. After the interval, the advantage shifts towards Valencia, as Racing concede an average of 1.5 goals in the second half at home and 2.25 goals per match overall, compared with 1.33 conceded by the visitors away from home. Racing do have a higher home xG than Valencia’s away xG, 1.28 versus 0.99, which limits confidence in the pick, but they average just 0.5 goals per match and have not won any of their 4 home fixtures. Therefore, a draw at half-time followed by a Valencia win is the strongest single HT/FT scenario, although given both teams’ low scoring output, a draw at full-time remains a significant alternative.
