Barcelona host Racing Santander in a midweek La Liga clash

Barcelona face Racing Santander on Wednesday night with strong odds for goals.

Written by the BettingEdgeHub desk, 14 September 2026

Barcelona return to action on Wednesday night when they welcome Racing Santander to Catalonia. Hansi Flick and his squad are in great form after winning their first six matches across all competitions. Punters will find plenty of attractive betting promotions available across the continent for this midweek fixture.

The betting angle

The betting markets make Barcelona heavy favourites to extend their winning run. Backing Anthony Gordon to score anytime offers a price of 29/20 with BetUS. Bettors looking for value might see these odds shorten if Barcelona score early in the match.

Barcelona head into this fixture after a 4 2 victory away at Levante over the weekend. Lamine Yamal scored a brace in that match, though he might start on the bench here. Gabriel Jesus could lead the line after his move from Arsenal.

Team news and updates

Barcelona must cope without long term injuries to Roony Bardghji and Frenkie de Jong. Racing Santander travel without Andre Almeida following his red card against Alaves. Andres Martin also misses out for the visitors due to a knee injury.

Racing Santander earned promotion to La Liga this season and sit comfortably in the top half. Yassir Zabiri leads their attack after scoring five goals in his previous three league appearances. Julen Agirrezabala will start in goal for the visiting team.

Match expectations

Racing Santander have shown plenty of attacking threat but remain without a clean sheet this season. They have already conceded nine goals in the top flight. This defensive vulnerability should shorten the odds on over market bets for goals.

What it means for a bet

Expect goals from the hosts, which keeps short prices on Barcelona markets appealing for accumulators.
