The next league matchday will pit Cádiz CF against Racing de Santander at El Sardinero, a duel that will mark the 18th occasion the Cadiz team has visited the Cantabrian capital in league competition. This encounter, scheduled for Sunday, May 31st at 6:30 PM, will be the fifth in Santander's home ground so far this 21st century.
The historical record of the previous 17 matches in Santander is unfavorable for Cádiz, with 11 home wins, one draw, and only five victories for the yellow team. However, the significance of the victories achieved by the Cadiz squad in Cantabrian lands generates optimism. This relief is further bolstered by the recent 3-0 victory against Leganés, which mathematically secured Cádiz CF's permanence in the division.
Cádiz CF's five victories in Santander have been historic. Three of them were narrow wins (0-1), with the exception of the two most recent in 2019 (1-2) and 2025 (2-3). These wins were crucial for promotion to the Second Division in 1970, laid the groundwork for the leap to the First Division in 1981, marked the first away win in the top flight in 2005, helped advance in promotion playoffs in 2016 and 2020, and last season helped distance them from the relegation zone.
The match against Racing de Santander loses intensity as there is nothing at stake for Cádiz CF in terms of permanence. It is noteworthy that in the 1986/87 season, both teams faced each other up to three times at El Sardinero, with varied results including home wins and a draw.
The complete list of the 17 previous encounters in Santander includes results from various seasons and categories, from the Third Division to the First Division, reflecting the historic rivalry between the two clubs.
