Important duel in the "wrong" end of the Liga MX, with both Mazatlán and Tijuana enduring more concern than glee. This game is a real "six-pointer" with the host team at 13th and the visiting team in 18th place.

Insights:
  • Mazatlán have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Tijuana have the most conceded goals (27) in Liga MX

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Tijuana so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-5 (win-draw-lose). Tijuana seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

A 1-3 defeat away at Puebla before that.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Tijuana as they have only managed to score 7 times from 8 away games in the league.
