Pumas Tabasco form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Liga de Expansión MX this season. Pumas Tabasco, who have the most conceded goals (30) in Liga de Expansión MX, have only managed 0 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses from their games here. With nine home Liga de Expansión MX games in a row without a win, the Tabasco fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Mineros de Zacatecas game long ago, can be stopped today.

Tabasco are returning here after visiting Mineros de Zacatecas in a Liga de Expansión MX game and winning with a 2-1 scoreline. J. Cobián and E. Espinosa scored the goal(s). Sensational by Tabasco last match, beating Mineros de Zacatecas away as big underdogs. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Celaya.

Manager A. Pérez Macías felt very clever after E. Espinosa scored the winning goal against Mineros de Zacatecas, having brought on that player as a substitute in the 82nd minute.

Tabasco are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 7 games. Tabasco have conceded 16 goals in these home games, a significant number.
