Necaxa hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 8 points and a 17th position in the Liga MX table. Visiting Guadalajara holds 7th place with 12 pts.
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.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Guadalajara have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 13-14-13 (win-draw-loss) from 40 matches.
