Mazatlán form and stats

There's been little loot from Mazatlán's travels as they have only collected 8 points from 9 away games in the Liga MX. Mazatlán only have 1 win to counter their 3 defeats and 5 draws. It's a growing despair in Mazatlán as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

The manager Schiker was unhappy after their last game, played at their home stadium. Mazatlán suffered a 1-2 loss to Santos Laguna. It is not a good sign for Mazatlán that their goalie Gutierrez made ten saves in the Santos Laguna fixture, but still could not stop a defeat.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Atlas wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Mazatlán played away with similar odds. This revealed 5 games. The visitors overcame the odds to win 1 time, 1 were draw and the home team won as expected 3 times.

The attacking power of Mazatlán when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 9 league matches away. 12 goals have been conceded by Mazatlán in these games. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
