Querétaro have only collected 2 points from their away games in the Liga MX, after 0-2-7 (9 played).

Querétaro delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Tigres UANL in their previous fixture. Alcalá was the team player of the game with the player rating of 7.44. The agile goalkeeper Alcalá topped it up with a clean sheet.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Tijuana at their stadium, the result 2-1.

The attacking power of Querétaro when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 9 league matches away. The Querétaro manager Larrea has some worries about the defense as 22 goals have been conceded in these travels.
