Racing Santander have a similar record on paper, two wins, one draw and four losses, but the numbers around it are messier. They've shipped 21 goals in those seven matches, including heavy defeats at Celta Vigo and Barcelona.

Racing's defensive record away from home is the bigger concern of the two.

Comparative Team Statistics: Osasuna vs Racing Santander

Recent meetings between the two

The two clubs met twice last summer in friendlies, Osasuna winning 2-0 in July 2026 and Racing winning 1-0 away the year before that. Beyond that, their competitive history stretches back over a decade to matches that carry little relevance to either squad today.

With so much time and squad turnover between those old league meetings and now, there isn't much to draw from head-to-head history here.

History offers little useful signal for this fixture.

Where they sit in the table

Osasuna are 13th with eight points from seven games, Racing Santander 16th with seven points. It's a single point separating them, but the underlying numbers tell different stories.

Racing have actually scored more goals than Osasuna this season, but they've also conceded far more, which is why they sit lower despite a similar points tally.

Reliance on key men

Racing's M. Zabiri has scored six of their eleven league goals this season, more than half the team's total output. Osasuna are even more dependent on Ante Budimir, who has five of their six league goals.

Penalty cards:

André Almeida x 1

M. Zabiri x 4

Both sides look short of alternative goal threats if their main man has an off day. On the disciplinary side, Racing's André Almeida picked up a red card in just three recent appearances, a flag worth keeping an eye on.

What kind of game this could be

Osasuna's home matches have tended to be tight and low-scoring rather than open. Racing, on the other hand, have been on the wrong end of some big scorelines away from home this season.

Put together, it points to a game where Osasuna might not need to score much to give themselves a chance, while Racing's defensive record makes them vulnerable if the game opens up.
