The glass has been half empty for Juárez so far, and you could say the same about Mazatlán. These students from the school of hard knocks have a chance to get some important points here.
- Juárez is in the worst form (1-0-5)
- Mazatlán have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
It's no vacation for neither Juárez nor Mazatlán as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Juárez form and stats
3-2-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Liga MX numbers at home for Juárez so far this season. With seven home Liga MX games in a row without a win, the Juárez fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Necaxa game long ago, can be stopped today.
It's back home for Juárez, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Toluca away with the result 1-0. Fernández found the net in that victory. Some amazing scenes last match, when Fernández scored the winning goal five minutes into stoppage time. Fernández, who plays in attack, was the best player for the team in that game, and was presented with a rating of 7.55 (out of 10). Fernández scored one goal, hit the woodwork once and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.
Preceding that match was the home game against Pachuca that was lost 1-2.This is expected to be a close game, with Juárez perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Juárez as a small favourite), we find 17 games. Juárez has won six of these, drawn four and lost seven.
The Juárez fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 8 matches. 10 goals have been conceded. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
Mazatlán form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Mazatlán so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-5 (win-draw-lose).
Sosa scored in Mazatlán's previous match, the home game against Santos Laguna that ended 1-0. Goalkeeper Vikonis was absolutely vital in the Mazatlán victory against Santos Laguna, making six saves. Vikonis was the team player of the game with the player rating of 8.42. The agile goalkeeper Vikonis topped it up with a clean sheet.
Preceding that game was the away victory against Atlas with the score of 2-1.The visitors have scored 5 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Mazatlán struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 12 goals conceded from these games.
Head 2 Head
