NextGOAL tip: Tijuana -0.5 · 2 stars
Tijuana and Puebla meet in almost identical circumstances. Both just finished their last five matches with the same 1-1 draw, and neither has won in 4 straight games. This is a match where both sides need three points to break a similar cycle. Tijuana play at home with a record of 15 scored and 14 conceded from 10 matches, while Puebla have scored 12 and conceded 13 from 11 matches. The numbers from the last 10 matches show both teams have similar possession, but Tijuana clearly face more shots on target, in contrast to Puebla who allow their opponents fewer shots on target. In the first half, Puebla away from home concede more goals on average than they score, while Tijuana at home in the first half concede fewer on average than they score. If the first half plays out as the stats suggest, with Puebla sitting back and waiting for their moment while Tijuana gradually grind them down from midfield, the second half should open up as both teams come out looking for goals, and it is Tijuana who have enough at home to close the game out.
