Racing Santander represent the same group of the Segunda Division B that Mirandes do. Last season Los Racinguistas placed fifth in the table with 68 points and a 44-33 goal difference to their credit. They didn`t really have chances to compete for the Segunda Division promotion. The team of Ivan Ania has started the new season off with a win over Real Sociedad B with a 1-0 score on their home field and a draw against Mirandes with a 1-1 score on the away side. Los Verdiblancos have had ten away fixtures in 2018, won two of them, drew four and lost four. In their last three matches before the start of the new season Racing Santander had beaten Real Madrid B with a 3-1 score, Leonesa with a 2-1 score and had lost to Leioa with a 2-3 score.
Mirandes and Racing Santander faced each other twice in 2018. Los Racinguistas celebrated a 1-0 win on January 21st and a 0-0 draw was settled on September 1st. The teams will face each other at the Estadio Municipal de Anduva once again less than a week after their last face-off. It is likely that the upcoming match will have only a few goals scored because neither team have been showing spectacular playing style lately.
