Necaxa know they are going on a grim visit to Guadalajara and their Estadio AKRON. This match preview has all the knowledge you require ahead of the game.

Insights:
  • Guadalajara have the most conceded goals (7) at home in Liga MX
  • Necaxa have scored in all their away matches so far.

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!

1-1-2 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Necaxa when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those four matches are 4-5 (scored/conceded).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Necaxa form and stats

Things could have gone better for Necaxa in their Liga MX away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

290 minutes! That's how long the Necaxa goalkeeper Luis Angel Malagon Velazquez and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Luis Garcia scored in Necaxa's previous match, the home game against Juarez that ended 1-0. Julio González, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.45. González won 3 of 4 duels. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager G. Vázquez Herrera when Luis Garcia scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 58th minute.

Before that, Necaxa secured a home win against Pumas UNAM with the score 3-0.
