Competition: Spanish Segunda

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 2/3 @ 1xBet

In what could prove to be an enjoyable Segunda showdown on Sunday evening, Racing Santander will travel to Almeria.

Starting with the hosts, suffering play-off heartbreak last season as they eventually fell to a 3-2 aggregate defeat against Real Oviedo, Almeria are once again pencilled in as a standout top-six contender this time around. However, opening the 2025/26 campaign with what was an astonishing 4-4 stalemate at home against Albacete, Rubi’s men have been forced to settle for a single point in two of their first three Segunda appearances and they will be desperate to collect a heavyweight scalp here. Last seen signing off August with a dramatic 2-2 draw away at Real Sociedad B, La Union also know the importance of finding some defensive stability. Recording just a single clean sheet from any of their previous five showdowns against Segunda opposition continuing on from last season, Almeria have recorded consecutive clean sheets across any competition on just a single occasion so far this calendar year.

As for the visitors, while Racing Santander might have suffered their own respective play-off frustration back on June 12th as they git hit with a 7-4 aggregate defeat against Mirandes, Jose Alberto Lopez’s side haven’t shown any signs of a hangover this time around. Flying out of the traps since opening up the 2025/26 campaign, the Cantabria-based outfit get this weekend’s fixtures underway leading the chase at the top of the Segunda table. Last seen putting in another dominant display as they stormed their way to a 4-1 romp against Ceuta, Sunday’s guests have won their first three appearances this season and they are one of just two clubs who can boast a 100% start to proceedings. Getting their new Segunda adventure underway with a 3-1 win at home against Castellon, Racing Santander will also be excited by their free-scoring performances in the final third.

Bet: Both teams to score at Almeria vs Racing Santander 2/3 for Sunday’s Segunda showdown @ 1xBet
