Season ticket holders at Estadio BBVA Bancomer haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Monterrey languishing in the 18th position so far. The guesting Santos Laguna will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Monterrey form and stats
0-3-2 (win-draw-lost) are the Liga MX numbers at home for Monterrey so far this season. All in all it has been a very rough period for Monterrey who hasn’t won a league-game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against America, 85 days ago.
A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Monterrey, who played 2-2 against Atletico San Luis. That match was also played at this venue (Estadio BBVA Bancomer). Prior to that, an away loss at Juarez in the Copa MX.
A disappointing finish for Monterrey in their match versus Atletico San Luis as their 2-0 lead was destroyed and replaced with a 2-2 full time score.
