Santos Laguna and Pumas UNAM come into this with the same 16 points from 12 matches, and this game is where the two of them must settle between themselves who gets to move ahead in the table. The hosts are in their best run of results of the season, on a winning run, and at home they have picked up as many as 3 wins from 6 matches while conceding an average of just half a goal per game. But their home attack has not been as flashy as the overall total: they score an average of 1.3 goals, and as many as 3 of their 6 home matches have seen them fail to score at all. As for Pumas UNAM, away from home they score an average of 1.7 goals and both teams have scored in as many as 4 of 6 matches, but they also concede an average of 1.5 goals. This game is likely to play out with the hosts having more of the ball and trying to open up the play, while Pumas UNAM wait for the moment to counter and use the danger from the hosts' home scoring, which is not especially frequent, as the opening. If the hosts run into the same old problem of not scoring, the game will open up even more for the visitors to play in the rhythm they like.
