Liga MX: We're previewing an engrossing and very important match between Tijuana and Atlético San Luis at Estadio Caliente. Both teams need the win!
- Tijuana have the fewest matches over the total-line (9) in Liga MX
- Atlético San Luis have the fewest scored goals (15) in Liga MX
These teams have little in common geographically as Atlético San Luis have to travel 2400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Tijuana form and stats
With 2 Liga MX wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Tijuana are certainly not brimming with confidence. When Tijuana hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Atlas, Mazatlán, Pumas UNAM, Tijuana and Queretaro), they have won 1 of 2 matches! With eight home Liga MX games in a row without a win, the Tijuana fans could feel they are not getting value for their money.
The home team returns to Estadio Caliente after drawing with Necaxa on their last time out; the game ended 1-1. López was "man of the match" with a rating of 7.44 out of 10. The defender López won 10 of 14 duels.
In the match before that, Tijuana hosted Pumas UNAM and drew the game 0-0.The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
