Tijuana have not been spoiled with points this league season. Will the team get some points when León visit Estadio Caliente?

Insights:
  • Tijuana have the most conceded goals (27) in Liga MX
  • León have the most points (17) away in Liga MX

2-2-2 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for León when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those six matches are 6-6 (scored/conceded).

These teams have little in common geographically as León have to travel 2400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Tijuana and León should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Tijuana form and stats

The story so far in the Liga MX for Tijuana at their home stadium (Estadio Caliente) is 2 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats.

Tijuana are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-2 away versus Cruz Azul. Midfielder Ruíz was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.43 (out of ten) in that game. Ruíz hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times and had 42 successful passes (of 46 total).

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Pachuca in a game that was won 3-2.

The Tijuana fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 9 matches. 11 goals have been conceded. When Tijuana hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Mazatlan, Necaxa, Pachuca, Queretaro and Juárez), the matches have ended over 2.5 goals 2 of 3 times.

León form and stats

As the visiting team in Liga MX matches, León have produced an overall stat of 5-2-2 so far. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Holan, the León manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

It might be tough going out on the road again for León, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-1 versus Atlas (after extra-time, 4-3 on penalties). It's a bit troubling for León that their goalkeeper Cota pulled off eight saves in the Atlas (after extra-time, 4-3 on penalties) match, but still could not prevent a defeat. Cota was the team player of the game with the player rating of 8.34. The agile goalkeeper Cota stopped the opponent with eight saves.

Prior to that match, a home win 3-2 against Atlas.

After this away game León return home for a Liga MX game against Atlas. That game is only four sleeps after this.

The visiting León have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 9 goals from 9 games. It's not easy to score on León as they have only conceded 8 goals from these away games. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

The most up to date registered result involving both these contenders is the León - Tijuana 2-1 played not long ago this season. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's three Tijuana victories, two draws and five León wins. Over/under statistics; six of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.
