A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The Cruz Azul fans are optimistic that the difference between 4th and Atlético San Luis's 18th place in the table will show on the pitch.
- Cruz Azul have the most clean sheets (16) in Liga MX
- Atlético San Luis have the most conceded goals (35) in Liga MX
Cruz Azul and Atlético San Luis should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Cruz Azul form and stats
16 points is a decent return from 8 Liga MX games here at Estadio Azteca for Cruz Azul. The data says 5 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. Cruz has a nice streak going on as they have played 13 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Puebla defeat 97 days ago. Cruz has won so many consecutive home games (six in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Estadio Azteca. We remember; it was Puebla.
Previous to that game, a CONCACAF Champions League home match hosting Arcahaie in a game that was won 8-0.
Cruz Azul are traveling soon after this match as the CONCACAF Champions League match at Toronto awaits in three days.
The Cruz fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 12 goals in 8 league matches. Cruz are not conceding a lot of goals here at Estadio Azteca in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 6 from 8 matches.
Atlético San Luis form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Atlético San Luis, who have the most conceded goals (35) in Liga MX, so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 1-0-7 (win-draw-lose). With the Atlético losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Bitter travels for Atlético as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Mazatlan match.
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Juarez wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Atlético San Luis as they have only managed to score 7 times from 8 away games in the league. For Atlético, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
Head 2 Head
