Only a few games have been played in the Liga MX so far, with Cruz Azul placed 5th and León sitting in the 7th position.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Cruz Azul form and stats
Cruz Azul have only played one Liga MX game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 4 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat from 5 matches.
Cruz manager R. Siboldi Badiola and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Puebla (placed 3rd) in the Liga MX. Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Santos Laguna.
The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Cruz handle that role? We have found 13 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are seven wins, three draws and three defeats.
Cruz Azul are traveling soon after this match as the Liga MX match at Querétaro awaits in four days.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Cruz Azul at home in the league. 2 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
León form and stats
One match played away so far in the Liga MX for León and it was a tie. Last season the statistics for their away games were 2 wins, 0 draws and 3 losses from 5 games.
Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. León goalkeeper Rodolfo Cota Robles is eager to challenge this, with his 245 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.
Luis Montes scored in León's previous match, the home game against Monterrey that ended 1-0. Preceding that game, the 0-0 draw paying a visit to Guadalajara.
León are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, two draws and three defeats. From a total of eight matches.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the León manager M. Ambriz Espinoza as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Pachuca.
0 goals so far away for León, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 0. All from 1 league match away.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Cruz, four draws and two wins for León. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.Top Goalscorers
