In a critical La Liga clash, Elche CF looks to halt their five-match winless streak against table-struggling Real Racing Club de Santander, who must avoid sliding further into the relegation zone. Racing Santander's top scorer, Luis Rioja, will be a key player to watch, while Elche's Brazilian forward, Pereiro, will be aiming to extend his scoring form. A victory for Elche could move them out of the relegation zone.
