Racing Santander vs Real Betis
March 8, 2008
9/3- Racing Santander have performed exceedingly well this season and as a result they currently occupy the 6th spot on the points table, they have not scored as many goals as the other top teams but have been disciplined throughout the season and ensured that opponents are not able to score high number of goals as well. They get ready to take on a fighting Real Betis who have fought their way out of the relegation zone and currently are placed on the 11th spot. The last match between the two sides ended in a draw but the overall record stands heavily in favour of the visiting side. In the 23 matches played between the two teams Real Betis have managed 7 victories while Racing Santander have only managed to have 3 victories while the other 13 have been draws. Also both the teams are equal in terms of their recent form as both the teams have won 4 matches, lost 3 matches and drawn 3 matches in their last 10 matches.
Racing Santander would be hoping to capitalise on the home advantage and score some crucial points, they enter this match after back to back victories and this would help them keep their confidence quite high as well. Their last week’s 1-0 victory against Valladolid in an away tie was a great example of the form they are in. They have a very good defence and a good performance at the front can help them win more matches.
Real Betis on the other hand have improved leaps and bounds to ensure their stay in the top league for the next year as well but the players need to be careful and not be complacent. Their last week’s home win against Murcia would have made the players feel relaxed and confident/
Prediction: 0-0 draw
