Universidad Guadalajara form and stats

Universidad Guadalajara have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Liga de Expansión MX, after 2-0-6 (8 played).

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Liga de Expansión MX home defeat versus Tepatitlan de Morelos with 0-1 on the scoreboard. A draw for Universidad before that, at their own venue hosting Cimarrones de Sonora (1-1).

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Universidad manager J. Dávalos Mercado as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Mineros de Zacatecas.

Universidad have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 8 league away games 9 goals have been scored. Universidad struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 13 goals conceded from these games.
