Cruz Azul return home after a 3-1 away win in their last match, and they have now won three in a row. Here they face León, who sit 6th, just 4 points apart, so this is a game the hosts want to use to close the gap in the table as much as possible. Cruz Azul have been balanced in attack and defence lately, clearly scoring more and conceding fewer than León, while León, though unbeaten in their last two, find wins hard to come by, especially with a defence that leaks periodically and concedes more than they score. This game is likely to see the hosts control the tempo and squeeze León into defending deep. If Cruz Azul score first, León will have to open up, which will only create more space for the hosts to attack. But if León can hold out until late, the game may end with few goals, as many of their matches do.
