The Guadalajara Chivas team comes to this game after a defeat (2-1) against Santos Laguna. Despite the division of ball possession in the 1st half, the Santos Laguna team was always the most dangerous, failing to reach an equalizer sooner thanks to a good performance by the Guadalajara Chivas goalkeeper, with the Guadalajara Chivas team only creating 1 goal opportunity. In the 2nd half, the Santos Laguna team would come out strong and reach 1-0 after 56'. Despite fewer opportunities than in the 1st half, the Santos Laguna team demonstrated more efficiency in the 2nd, reaching 2-0 in the 72nd minute. The Guadalajara Chivas team had great difficulties in causing danger, only managing to reduce it to 2-1 in the 84th minute. With this result, the Guadalajara Chivas team suffered their first defeat in the league, falling to 4th place. In the last 5 league games the team has recorded 3 wins, 1 draw, and 1 defeat, having scored an impressive 8 goals and conceded 4.

The Monterrey team comes to this game after a loss (1-0) against Toluca. It was a game with two completely different parts. In the 1st half, it was the team of Toluca who had the most possession of the ball, an impressive 74% and it would be during this period, the team managed to reach 1-0, in the 26th minute. In the 2nd half, precisely the opposite would happen. The Monterrey team was looking to reach a draw and would completely take over the game, having an incredible 78% of the ball. But with an excellent defensive display from the Toluca team and their goalkeeper, the team couldn’t reach the draw. With this result, the team suffered its 4th consecutive defeat, 2 of which were in the league. But the team hired two excellent reinforcements, Tecatito Corona and Sergio Canales. The question remains whether these will be able to make an immediate impact. In the last 5 league games the team has recorded 2 wins, 1 draw, and 2 defeats, having scored 6 goals and conceded 4.

In the last 5 games between these two teams, Guadalajara Chivas has won 2, Monterrey has won 2, and they drew another. Goals were scored in 4 of those games, but with both teams scoring in just 1 of those matches.

It’s a hard match to predict, due to the recent loss of Chivas and the new signings of Monterrey. But goals are to be expected from both teams.
