Mazatlán form and stats

Mazatlán have played 8 Liga MX games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-2-3 (wins-draws-losses).

A good away victory last time out for Mazatlán, who won 3-2 against Tijuana. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Puebla (1-3).

A very satisfying win for Mazatlán against Tijuana last time out as a late comeback secured the victory after trailing 0-2. The win was secured through Michael Rangel's goal in the 90th minute. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of T. Boy Espinoza when Michael Rangel scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 73rd minute. Some amazing scenes last match, when Michael Rangel scored the winning goal one minutes into stoppage time.

Mazatlán are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 8 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Mazatlán defense is not exactly impregnable. 13 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
