Tigres de la UANL
WDWDLD
Tigres head into this fixture following on from a 0-0 Primera (Clausura) Liguilla tied result vs Necaxa.
In that match, Tigres de la UANL managed 53% possession and 7 shots on goal with 3 on target. On the other side, Necaxa had 23 attempts at goal with 8 on target.
Their more recent scorelines really do illustrate the point that there has been much resilience in the Tigres de la UANL defence. Tigres de la UANL have been mean at the back, seeing the tally of goals that have flown into the back of their net during their last six clashes standing at 4. Putting that to one side, it remains to be seen if such a trend shall continue on in this upcoming game or not.
Necaxa
WWLDWD
Nicolás Larcamón's Necaxa have found the back of the net 10 times throughout their previous 6 matches. The number of goals that they have conceded during that same period equals 8.

Head to head
A study of their past head to head results stretching back to 04/03/2023 reveals that these fixtures have been disappointments for Necaxa. They’ve not managed to come away with any victories at all whereas Tigres have just been stronger than them, winning in 83% of those ties.
In all, 15 goals were yielded between them throughout the course of those matches, with 12 of them for Los Tigres and 3 netted by Lightning Bolts. The average goals per game has been 2.5.
ℹ️
Team News: Tigres
Almost everyone can be considered, as there’s just the lone fitness concern for the Tigres boss Guido Pizarro to contend with from an otherwise fully-primed squad. Diego Reyes (sprain) will miss out.

Team News: Necaxa
Due to a mostly available squad, there’s only the one fitness issue for the Necaxa manager Nicolás Larcamón to be concerned with. Agustín Oliveros (Shin injury) won’t be in action.

Prediction
We’re thinking that Necaxa will have to work hard as a team to put one past this Tigres de la UANL lineup who should manage to get a goal of their own in a winning performance.
With that in mind, we reckon that it will be a highly competitive game with a 1-0 victory for Tigres de la UANL at the end of the 90.
Looking forward to watching this one unfold.
