Atletico San Luis Preview
Atlético San Luis beat Necaxa in the first matchday by a score of 2-3 and left a good impression during that game. We immediately thought that San Luis was going to have a great tournament, but things have not worked out for them.
They tied against Chivas in a game they focused on a defensive while playing with 10 players. In their following game, Monterrey thrashed them, but they surprised everyone at the Volcán, as they held Tigres to a scoreless draw during their last game.
The schedule has not helped them, but to come out at the Volcán with a clean sheet and not losing against Chivas with 10 players is remarkable. André Jardine is finding a fairly balanced and interesting team that is looking for a win at home to keep thinking about qualifying. Last tournament they almost qualified for the playoffs and improved at the end. Now they look similar, but with more rounds to go, the Tuneros can dream about qualifying for that stage during this season.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1): Marcelo Barovero; Ricardo Chávez, Jesús Piñuelas, Unai Bilbao, Uziel García; Javier Guemez, Rodrigo Dourado; Juan Manuel Sanabria, Dieter Villalpando, Angel Zaldivar; Leo Bonatini
Puebla Preview
Puebla, unlike its rivals, has started this season on the wrong foot. They were beaten by Pachuca (5-1) in the first matchday, but then in the following game they achieved a great victory against Querétaro 2-0 and that made up for their poor performance in the first game.
The following matchdays they managed a draw against the Águilas at the Azteca. However, this was more due to America lack of effectiveness than a good game from Puebla. Finally, they had a terrible performance against Rayados and lost 1-2 at home.
Eduardo Arce has made some adjustments to the team, but it doesn’t look particularly good. There were rumors that Santiago Ormeño might return, but it seems that Juárez is going to win the race to reinforce their offense, something that they urgently need because they have only scored 6 goals with 44 shots scored.
Possible Lineup (5-4-1): Antony Silva; Emilio Martínez, Emanuel Gularte, Diego de Buen, Gastón Silva, Lucao; Gustavo Ferrareis, Facundo Waller, Federico Mancuello, Pablo Parra; Martín Barragán.
JefeBet Prediction
San Luis’ numbers are misleading, they have played against some tough opponents and have obtained positive results. For this reason, we believe they will manage to win at home and continue dreaming of qualifying. Puebla has yet to find its best performance, and visiting the Alfonso Lastras will be difficult.
Prediction: Atletico San Luis 2-0 Puebla
