Betting tip and prediction for this match between Santander vs Zaragoza

The best prediction for Santander vs Zaragoza in the Second Division is a Santander win. The home team plays at their best, where they have scored most of their goals and accumulated several victories, while fiercely competing for the top spot. Real Zaragoza, on the other hand, is having a poor season; however, their attack has shown some consistency. We expect an open game dominated by the hosts, who should control possession and create the main scoring chances. Therefore, betting on a Santander victory at the end of the ninety minutes seems to be a good alternative.

Match prediction for Santander vs Zaragoza

The teams Santander and Zaragoza meet at the Campos de Sport de El Sardinero in a duel of the 21st round of the Liga Adelante. The history of head-to-head confrontations at this stadium favors the home team, which has won 2 and lost 1 of the last 3 matches. In fact, in the last clash at this stadium for Liga Adelante on March 29, 2025, Racing Santander won 2-0. The goals for Santander were scored by Andrés Martín (68′) and Pablo Rodríguez (47′). In this match, the home advantage may play a crucial role, as Zaragoza has shown discrepancies in performance when playing at home versus away.

Analysis of Santander

The home team is currently in 1st place, with 38 points from 11 wins, 5 draws, and 4 losses. In the last match, they drew away to Huesca 1-1. This is a team that maintains its performance even when playing away from home, as they have recorded 6 wins, 5 draws, and 4 losses as visitors in the last 30 games; compared to 9 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses at home. In their last 10 league games at home, Santander has achieved 6 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, gathering 20 points out of a possible 30.

In this competition, they have not lost any of their last 6 home games. The team allowed goals from their opponent in 7 of their last 10 matches, indicating a lack of defensive solidity, but their attack has consistently scored, netting at least one goal in their last 10 matches in this competition. In home games, there is a trend for goals, as 8 of their last 10 league matches ended with over 2.5 goals. In 20 games this season, they managed to turn the score around in 5 of the 9 matches where they conceded the first goal.

Racing Santander has managed to stay at the top but only managed a draw away from home in the last round against Real Valladolid, with their goal scored by Andrés Martín. The team typically lines up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, positioning Arana as the player closest to the goal, serving as the focal point for scoring opportunities. In the next line, Iñigo Vicente, Andrés Martín, and Peio Canales form a highly mobile trio, constantly moving, swapping positions naturally, attacking spaces between defenders, and quickening possession to maintain a dominant posture, applying continuous pressure in the attacking field. The forward Asier Villalibre is injured and confirmed to miss the next round.

Analysis of Zaragoza

The visiting team is currently in 21st place, with 17 points from 4 wins, 5 draws, and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they drew away to Burgos 1-1. In the last match, they lost at home to Las Palmas 1-2. Interestingly, this team has been stronger away than at home, with 5 wins, 3 draws, and 7 losses in their last 30 matches as visitors; compared to 4 wins, 5 draws, and 6 losses at home. In the league, Zaragoza has collected 9 points from 30 possible, coming from 2 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses in their last 10 away matches. The most frequent halftime score in their away games has been 1-0, occurring in 4 of their 10 matches. The team has conceded goals in 9 of their last 10 games, lacking defensive solidity, yet their attack has scored regularly, netting in 8 of their last 10 matches in the competition. In their away games, there is a trend for few goals, as 7 of their last 10 league matches ended with under 2.5 goals. This is a team that rarely scores first: they have only taken the lead in 4 of their last 20 league matches, of which they led at halftime in 2 and won at the end of 90 minutes in 2. In 20 outings in this competition, they have conceded the first goal 15 times and have only managed to turn the match around twice. In their last 10 away matches for this competition, one period stands out: they scored 6 of their 9 goals between the 76th and 90th minutes.

Real Zaragoza cannot seem to recover from their poor run, having lost again at home last round to Las Palmas 1-2, with their goal scored by Kenan Kodro. The team usually organizes itself in a 4-2-3-1 formation, arranging Dani Gómez as the most advanced player and the preferred target for decisive plays. In a lower line, Sebas Moyano, Marcos Cuenca, and Mario Soberón take on the responsibility of articulating the offensive game, alternating heights, occupying different areas of the field, and creating multiple passing connections, which broadens progression options, breaks defensive references, and makes the construction process much harder to neutralize. Defender Tachi is suspended and will be unavailable for the next match.
