Leones del Norte and Emelec meet in Liga Pro with the same points tally of 39 from 30 matches, and only two places apart in the table, 8th and 10th, so this is a match where the result carries direct weight for both sides. Leones del Norte have just come off a 0-3 defeat, while Emelec also lost their most recent match. Both teams have identical season records: 10 wins, 9 draws, 11 losses, differing only in goals scored and conceded. Emelec have conceded slightly more shots on target over their last ten games, and 28% of all the goals they have conceded have come in the second half, while Leones del Norte score most in the 31-45 minute window. This looks likely to be an open, end-to-end game in midfield, because both sides need the three points to move up the table. The first thing to watch after kick-off is how much attacking intent Leones del Norte can impose on Emelec in the first half.
