Mayra Madrigal
Toluca vs Santos was one of the four games in the first leg of the Apertura 2022 Liga MX quarterfinals that satisfied soccer fans with plenty of goals. “Los Diablos” won by a score of 4-3 as locals, and will come into this match with a minimal advantage on the aggregate.
Santos only needs one goal to advance to the semifinals, as any draw on aggregate will work for them due to its advantage in the overall standings. It is probable that neither of these teams will relax, and we will continue to see a lot of goals.

Santos Preview
Santos had to deal with an early disadvantage on the match and before the 10th minute they were already loosing 2-0. However, they reacted immediately and equalized before halftime.
The game continued to be back and forth, and despite their efforts, the final score did not benefit the Torreón team. In addition, this defeat ended their five-game unbeaten streak of three wins and two draws. Closing the series at home is an advantage, as Santos was the best home team of a season in which it has not lost any of its nine matches played on its territory, with eight wins and one draw.
Absences: Juan Francisco Brunetta, Matheus Doria and Ayrton Preciado.
Probable lineup: Carlos Acevedo, Carlos Orrantia, Félix Torres, Hugo Rodríguez, Omar Campos, Leonardo Suárez, Alan Cervantes, Fernando Gorriarán, Cecilio Domínguez, Eduardo Aguirre and Harold Preciado.
Toluca Preview
Toluca should be happy with this moment because after qualifying in the playoffs, they are now close to advancing to the semifinals after winning the first leg. With this recent victory (third in a row), they now register five games unbeaten.
The scarlet team left behind the negative period they have gone through during the last matchdays of the regular phase. They have a one-goal advantage ahead of the second leg, but playing away does not play in favor of Toluca, which has failed to win in its last three games as visitors.
Absences: No report.
Probable lineup: Tiago Volpi, Carlos Guzmán, Andrés Mosquera, Valber Huerta, Jorge Rodríguez, Claudio Baeza, Fernando Navarro, Leonardo Fernández, Jean Meneses, Camilo Sanvezzo and Carlos González.
JefeBet Prediction
The advantage is undoubtedly for the team from the Comarca Lagunera. They will be playing at home, where they have seven consecutive victories and a total of 14 matches without defeat in the last eight months.
Prediction: Santos Laguna wins by a score of 2-0.
