Osasuna vs Racing Santander — Tips & Analysis

Racing Santander +0.5: Osasuna are not a side that wins games right now, and that is the base of this pick. They have won 3 of their last 15 games and have no win in their last five. They are 16th, level on points and goal difference with Racing. At home Osasuna are tight but blunt. They score less than a goal a game at El Sadar. Their four home games this season finished 1-1, 0-2, 1-0 and 0-0, so nothing gets away from them there. They have not won by 2 or more goals in any of their last 15 games. Jorge Herrando and Ruben Del Castillo are both out, and Kike Barja needs a late check. Racing arrive in much better shape. They have won 6 and tied 4 of their last 14 games, and they score 2 goals a game. Their only real worry is in goal, where Simon Eriksson is doubtful and Agirrezabala steps in. Put that together and a 1-1 looks the most likely result. Racing coming away unbeaten is exactly what we want. There are two things against us. Racing have won one of their last seven away games and let in more than 2 goals a game on the road. The worst of that came at Barcelona and Celta. Osasuna have also won three of the last six meetings between these two. We are still with Racing to take something from this game.
