The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match.

Puebla form and stats

Let's have a look at how Puebla performed last season in the Liga MX: They landed a 12th position in the league table after playing out 6 victories, 2 draws and 9 defeats. In total they scored 22 and conceded 25 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 4 - drew 0 and lost 5 with 10/12 goals scored/conceded.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Puebla playing away, we found five games. Results were two away wins, one draw and two home wins.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Monterrey three wins, four draws and Puebla three victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.
