Racing Santander welcome Cadiz to the Estadio El Sardinero for the final matchday of the 2025-26 Spanish Segunda Division campaign on Sunday. The two teams are at opposite ends of the table.
Racing Santander have confirmed their return to La Liga, the pinnacle of Spanish club football, as they are certain to finish in one of the top two positions in the La Liga 2 standings, which both ensure automatic promotion.
Thanks for the submission!
Racing are currently top of the log with 79 points from 41 matches, two ahead of Deportivo La Coruna in second place and eight ahead of third-placed Almeria.
The outcome of this match against Cadiz and Deportivo’s game versus Las Palmas will determine whether Racing end the season as the league winners or not.
In their most recent match, Racing Santander drew 1-1 with fourth-placed Malaga at La Rosaleda on Sunday. An early goal from David Larrubia was canceled out by the equalizer from Racing’s Andres Martin in the 69th minute.
Meanwhile, Cadiz are in 17th place with 43 points from 41 games. They are three points above Mirandes in 19th place (the last relegation spot), but cannot be relegated even if they lose and Mirandes win, because Cadiz have a superior head-to-head record against Mirandes this season.
On Sunday, Cadiz secured a priceless 3-0 victory over fellow relegation battlers Leganes at the Estadio Ramon de Carranza. Goals from Lucas Perez, Jose Antonio de la Rosa, and Antonio Cordero earned the victory for Cadiz.
That result takes the pressure off this final match of the season for El Submarino Amarillo.
