Racing – Granada: match preview
Racing sit atop the LaLiga 2 standings, holding a slim advantage over their closest chasers. In the previous round, Racing travelled to Las Palmas and suffered a 1–3 defeat. They’ve collected 25 points from 13 matches and currently lead the second- and third-placed teams by two points. They have scored in every match this season and own the division’s most potent attack: 29 goals in 13 games.
Granada were close to the promotion play-off zone last season, but this campaign they find themselves near the bottom. They went winless in their first six rounds — four defeats and two draws. Overall, they have three wins and four draws this season. After 13 matches, they sit 19th with 14 points, trailing 18th place by a single point. Survival in LaLiga 2 is clearly going to be their primary battle.
Projected lineups
- Racing: Ezkieta, Michelin, Pablo Ramón, Mario García, González, Canales, Arévalo, Gueye, Puerta, Andrés Martín, Villalibre
- Granada: Zidane, Naasei, Álex Sola, Diallo, Williams, Manu Lama, Alemañ, Sergio Ruiz, Rubén Alcaraz, Pascual, Faye
Prediction
Racing are league leaders with the best attack in LaLiga 2 and will look to extend their strong run. My recommendation is to back the hosts to win this match.
