ℹ️ Team News: Toluca

In our view, Los Diablos Rojos look set to opt for a 4-2-3-1 system for this one, handing starts to Pau López, Brian García, Bruno Méndez, Federico Pereira, Jesús Gallardo, Hector Herrera, Marcel Ruíz, J. Pablo Domínguez, Jesús Angulo, Ernesto Alexis Vega and Paulinho.

🗞️ Team News: Monterrey

Due to a mostly healthy squad, there’s just the one fitness worry for the Monterrey boss Martín Demichelis to be concerned with. Carlos Salcedo (Cruciate ligament tear) misses out for this game.

We reckon that Los Rayados could decide to utilise a 4-1-4-1 system, giving starts to Esteban Andrada, Ricardo Chávez, Stefan Medina, V. Andrés Guzmán, Gerardo Arteaga, Jorge Rodriguez, Jesus Manuel Corona, Nelson Deossa, Sergio Canales, Lucas Ariel Ocampos and Germán Berterame.

💡 Prediction

We’re inclined to think that Monterrey will have their work cut out to register a score against this Toluca lineup who we think might well end up scoring and staying ahead.

With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a very even contest with a 1-0 winning margin for Toluca after 90 minutes.

There should be little in it.
