MATCH PREVIEW
Racing Ferrol seek to extend their unbeaten run as they welcome Tenerife to the Estadio Municipal da Malata on Monday in what appears to be a mouth-watering La Liga 2 match. Racing Ferrol fared pretty well in their maiden season in La Liga 2 last term, eventually finishing 10th. But this season has turned out to be a bit of disappointment for them as they are placed at 18th position with 11 points from 11 games. However, they have been going nice off late with four successive unbeaten matches. They take on the bottom-placed team in the league, Tenerife, hoping to carry on the good work.
Tenerife has had a poor year to this point in what is now a 12th straight season in La Liga 2. They prop up the table with just six points, five from safety. They’ve been abysmal on the road, and that’ll need to get better as they seek to avoid relegation.

Key Reasons to Back Racing Ferrol +AH 0
Racing Ferrol have not lost any of their last four games.
Tenerife have won just one of their 11 matches this season in La Liga 2.
Poor away performance saw Tenerife lose and draw the previous two away games.
Given that the hosts have been in decent form defensively lately and considering Tenerife’s lack of good away performances recently, Racing Ferrol could be well-positioned for a good result.
