THE TEAM NEWS
ATLETICO SAN LUIS
- San Luis are coming off their worst defeat of the 2020 Clausura campaign since they lost 4-0 on the road against Pumas UNAM. That result pushed their winless run to three games, and they have notched just two points over that span (D2, L1) to sit in 12th place of the standings.
- Atletico San Luis have a healthy squad ahead of this match but changed their tactics to play with a 4-3-3 system the last time out. That shouldn’t change ahead of this contest.
Expected starting XI: Carlos Rodriguez; Matias Catalan, Fernando Leon, Dionicio Escalante, Luis Ricardo Reyes; Luis Felipe Gallegos, Camilo Mayada, Oscar Macias; German Berterame, Nicolas Ibanez, Anderson Julio
LEON
- Club Leon have been the league’s most dominant team so far as they have won three straight games and they are coming off a big 3-1 home win over Monterrey. They sit alone at the top of the standings with 12 points (W4, L1) and currently average 2.33 goals scored per game.
- Defensive midfielder Pedro Aquino missed last week’s game but he should be eligible to play in this contest alongside Luis Montes in midfield. Centre-back Andres Mosquera, however, has been ruled out through injury, while Yairo Moreno is doubtful and if he can’t play Gil Buron could start at left-back.
Expected starting XI: Rodolfo Cota; Fernando Navarro, William Tesillo, Jaine Bareiro, Yairo Moreno (Gil Giovanni Buron); Pedro Aquino, Luis Montes, Angel Mena; Jean Meneses, Leonardo Javier Ramos, Ismael Sosa
THE PREDICTION
Atletico San Luis have not been able to win in their last three matches and they certainly need to work harder defensively since they have conceded 2.0 goals per game during the last four matches. Leon, on the other hand, have looked almost unstoppable and it seems no team in the Liga MX can matchup with their strong attacking unit. San Luis are more than capable of delivering a good performance at home, but Leon should cruise their way towards a fourth straight win here.
