Santos Laguna host Querétaro in a Liga MX game, with the home side having just won 2-1 in their last match, while the visitors also won 2-0. Both teams therefore come in on winning form, but in different ways. The home side win by grinding out narrow results, while the visitors win by controlling the game firmly. Santos Laguna have won 4 in a row, but almost every win has been by a single goal. Their defence still gives away nervy moments. Querétaro are unbeaten in 5 and have kept clean sheets in their last two. Their defence looks calmer, but their away attack still relies more on counter-attacks than on dominating possession. This game should turn into a trade of blows, with the home side attacking more, while Querétaro sit back and wait to counter. If Santos Laguna score first, the game will open up and the home side have a chance to keep piling on pressure. But if the visitors score first, the home side will have to push higher up the pitch, which will open space for Querétaro to counter more comfortably.
