This match features two teams living in the basement of the Liga MX, Mazatlán holding 16th place and Tijuana lying 14th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Mazatlán form and stats

1-2-1 (win-draw-lost) are the Liga MX numbers at home for Mazatlán so far this season. Two draws in a row at home now for Mazatlán.

No payout for Mazatlán in their previous match, an away game at América that ended in defeat 1-3. In the match before that, Mazatlán hosted Tigres UANL and drew the game 1-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Mazatlán have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found two matches with the results: Won one, drawn one and lost zero.

Mazatlán are traveling soon after this match as the Liga MX match at Atlas awaits in three days.

Mazatlán are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 4 games. Mazatlán have conceded 6 from these games.

Tijuana form and stats

It's not happening yet for Tijuana on their Liga MX travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Tijuana's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Tijuana had fun at their own home last time out, beating Monterrey 2-1. Fabián Castillo (2) scored. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Pumas UNAM wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eight similar matches played by Tijuana in our archives, and the results are: five wins for Tijuana, one draw and two defeats.

A new game in only four days for Tijuana, the Liga MX home match versus Cruz Azul. Busy days.

Goals are few and far between in Tijuana's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. The Tijuana defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 9 goals in their away games.
