The Monterrey manager A. Mohamed Matijevich attacks this game with the team placed 9th so far. In the visitors dressing room Necaxa and their manager L. Sosa Cisneros are in 16th place before this match.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Monterrey form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Monterrey's two home games in the Liga MX so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Estadio BBVA Bancomer.
Monterrey drew their last game, 1-1 away at Pumas UNAM (placed 3rd). In the match before that, Monterrey hosted Santos Laguna and drew the game 2-2.
The Monterrey goalkeeper Luis Cárdenas was crucial in the match against Pumas UNAM last time out, making six saves.
The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Monterrey's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won one match, drawn three and lost zero.
