Puebla hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 13 points and a 18th position in the Liga MX table. Visiting Pumas UNAM holds 8th place with 21 pts.

It's no vacation for neither Puebla nor Pumas UNAM as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Puebla form and stats

With 2 Liga MX wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats from their home games, Puebla, who have the fewest clean sheets (1) in Liga MX, are certainly not brimming with confidence. Puebla has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager J. Reynoso and the players.

The fans are hoping that Puebla will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Liga MX game against Veracruz (placed 19th). Prior to that, an away loss at América.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Puebla, as the Copa MX home game vs Cimarrones de Sonora is only four days away.

The Puebla fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 7 matches. Puebla are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (14 from 7 played).

Pumas UNAM form and stats

There's been little loot from Pumas UNAM's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 7 away games in the Liga MX. Pumas UNAM only have 1 win to counter their 4 defeats and 2 draws.

The supporters enjoyed Pumas UNAM's previous game versus Atlas (placed 9th), a Liga MX 5-1 win played at home. A 0-3 defeat away at Queretaro before that.

As mentioned above, Pumas UNAM was the only team on the pitch versus Atlas in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Pumas UNAM as they have only managed to score 4 times from 7 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Pumas UNAM have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: 5 wins for Puebla, 1 draw and 4 wins for Pumas UNAM. Over 2,5 goals: 7 times; under 2,5 goals: 3 games.
