The Pachuca manager P. Pezzolano Suárez attacks this game with the team placed 9th so far. In the visitors dressing room León and their manager M. Ambriz Espinoza are in 10th place before this match.
León could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Liga MX game only three sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Cruz Azul. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
