Leon Preview
The local team got back to winning ways In its last game, defeating Querétaro by a score of 3-0. La Fiera took advantage of the situation to win three valuable points, something they had been unable to do since matchday 2.
During that negative streak, they registered two defeats and one tie. Larcamón, who will now receive the team that saw him grow as a coach, was under high pressure because of his team recent results. His project in León had not started on the right foot, but the victory against the Gallos helped him to take a breath.
They improved in defense. The few opportunities that Querétaro generated were contained with great authority by Jaine Barreiro, and in offense they were convincing, something they had not been doing in the tournament.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Rodolfo Cota, Iván Moreno, Jaine Barreiro, Adonis Frías, Osvaldo Rodríguez, Angel Mena, Lucas Romero, José Rodríguez, Yairo Moreno, Victor Dávila, Lucas Di Yorio.
Puebla Preview
Another team that took the opportunity to gain ground in the domestic league was Puebla. They met Mazatlan, the worst team of the tournament, and thrashed them 3-0 at home. All this happened in 45 minutes, as we could have skipped the second half because absolutely nothing happened.
The Camoteros were convincing, as all three of their shots in the first half were on target. The third came with an assist from Nicolas Vikonis, who just missed celebrating Puebla’s goal.
They had not won since the second matchday (curiously, the same as León) but they register two consecutive defeats and have one more game, because the Emeralds did not play in the first matchday. A victory would be really important for Eduardo Arce, and they face the Puebla with a little more confidence.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Anthony Silva, Emanuel Gularte, Gastón Silva, Daniel Aguilar, Gustavo Ferrareis, Diego de Buen, Federico Mancuello, Pablo Parra, Facundo Waller, Guillermo Martínez, Martín Barragán.
JefeBet Prediction
Both teams are in good form after beating two of the bottom teams, but victories are important, no matter the opponent. On this occasion, we believe that Leon comes into this game a little better positioned and will win at home.
Mazatlan is not that much of a parameter, so how the team will perform against a strongest rival is uncertain. The Camoteros have room for improvement, but León’s stadium is complicated for any team.
Prediction: León 2-0 Puebla
