Betting on Mazatlan (+120 on Codere)
The battle for the last place on the standings is still on dispute, and Mazatlán seems determined not to miss the opportunity to once again claim the title of the league’s bottom-dweller, a position it held in the past Clausura after only managing to gather seven points.
This time around, Ismael Rescalvo’s team still has not tasted victory in the Apertura and finds itself tied in the second-to-last spot of the standings with Pachuca, both with just two points each, although Mazatlán has played one more game.
Playing at home does not offer much solace for the Mazatlán team either. So far this season, it has only managed to secure a draw and suffered a defeat in its own stadium. In the previous tournament, the team won just one out of the nine matches it played at home, and has now only recorded three victories in its last 19 home games.
Probable lineup (4-5-1): Hugo González; Facundo Almada, Néstor Vidrio, Luis Olivas, Francisco Venegas; Andrés Montano, Alan Medina, Sergio Flores, Eduard Bello, Jefferson Intriago, Ake Loba.
Matchday 5 Apertura 2023
Betting on Puebla (+190 at Codere)
If Mazatlán’s current situation is complicated, Puebla’s, a team that made it to the playoffs in the last Clausura tournament, is even more tangled as it also does not know what it is like to win in this championship.
Puebla comes into this match after suffering its second home defeat in a row in this Apertura, and has only managed to get one point thanks to a draw achieved away in matchday 1 against Tigres, the current league champions and the team that eliminated Puebla in the Liguilla.
That being said, playing away from home is not the main strength of Eduardo Arce’s team. In its second away match, during matchday 3, the team got crushed 3-0 by América, while in the previous Clausura it only managed to attain two victories in nine matches and had the third most goals conceded with a total of 18 goals against.
Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Jesús Rodríguez; Luis García, Diego de Buen, Gastón Silva, Brayan Angulo; Pablo González, Federico Mancuello; Kevin Velasco, Daniel Álvarez, Ángel Robles: Guillermo Martínez.
