Happy home supporters, the away team steals the points or a score draw? Everything is possible when the mid-table sides Puebla and Guadalajara clash at Estadio Cuauhtémoc.

Insights:
  • Puebla have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Guadalajara have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

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 9-15-10 (win-draw-loss) from 34 matches.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Two away games in a row for Guadalajara, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-2 versus Cruz Azul. Late heartbreak for Guadalajara in the Cruz Azul match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime. Midfielder Flores was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.45. Flores scored one goal and hit one key pass.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against America wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.
