Racing Santander host Valencia in a game where both are sinking near the bottom of the table and both need points to escape the danger zone together. The hosts have 7 points from 7 matches, while the visitors have only 4 points, so this is a match neither team can afford to lose. Racing Santander just lost 0-5 in their latest match, after previously being thrashed 2-7, with defensive problems clearly visible. Valencia also just lost 2-3 and have lost 4 of their last 5, scoring only 4 goals all season, but Valencia's defence still concedes noticeably fewer goals than the hosts. Racing Santander have hit more shots on target than Valencia over the last 10 matches (5.2 per game compared to 3.78) and have slightly more possession, but the fact that the hosts concede late goals at a rate of 34% of all the goals they concede gives Valencia, who often score in the 76th-90th minute, a chance to counter and snatch a draw or a win. This game should be an entertaining exchange and finish with little between the sides.
