Santos Laguna have less rest than Veracruz in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Liga MX game only four days ago.

Veracruz have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Santos Laguna are returning here after visiting Atletico San Luis in a Liga MX game and winning with a 3-2 scoreline. The points were shared before that, a home game that ended 2-2 versus Pachuca.

Veracruz form and stats

It's not happening yet for Veracruz on their Liga MX travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Veracruz's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Veracruz's last game was the home draw against Cruz Azul (0-0). Prior to that match, the Veracruz manager E. López faced defeat when travelling to Morelia and losing 0-1.

As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Veracruz's match history for similar games we find two matches. The home team won 2 of these as expected, 1 of them by at least two goals. Veracruz managed 0 draws and 0 surprise wins.

Veracruz are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 0 goals from 3 away games. The Veracruz defense is as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle, having conceded 10 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Santos Laguna-Veracruz H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Santos Laguna 3 wins, Veracruz 3 wins, 4 draws. 5 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
