No team in the Segunda scored fewer goals in the opening 17 games than Racing Santander. The team’s defence have kept goals out with just 13 conceded. However, the attack is the Segunda’s worst.
Lugo will hope to take advantage of Racing’s poor attack. Los Rojiblancos are 20th in the standings. Lugo are just three points off Racing Santander and could overtake their opponents this weekend.
Lugo concede the second-most goals in the Segunda in the opening 17 matches. The team scored 16 times, but conceding goals has been a problem all season. Lugo have the opposite problem Racing Santander face going into round 18.
Draws were the most common result between these teams in the last six games. Three of the last six matches between Racing Santander and Lugo ended in stalemates. Racing won just one of the remaining three games, while Lugo picked up two victories.
Racing Santander are on a two-match losing streak, but they did pick up six points from the last six matches in the Segunda.
Los Verdiblancos scored four goals and conceded five times in the last six matches. Racing scored just one goal in the last 180 minutes of Segunda football.
Lugo also took six points from the last six games. Los Rojiblancos scored four goals and allowed seven to their last six opponents in the Segunda. Lugo are winless in their last five games in the Segunda.
Los Rojiblancos have been abysmal on the road this season. Lugo have a record of 1W-2D-5L and conceded 17 times away from home. Lugo went winless in their last six games away from home.
Racing Santander are the Segunda’s worst home team. They took seven points from eight games at the Campos de Sport de El Sardinero. Racing scored just three times in those eight games. The good news for Racing fans is the team went unbeaten in five of their last six home games.
Sunday’s match between Racing Santander and Lugo should be low on quality as the teams finish 1-1 at full-time.
