It raised concerns with its performance at the home of Chivas Guadalajara and rightfully lost 2-0. Second consecutive match without points for the team of coach Mauro Gerk, who is now on the edge of the top 10 of the table and is in a difficult position in regards to the playoff battle. With a win against Pumas tonight, of course, it will cover most possible scenarios and logically will secure a spot in the playoffs, as they are only being chased by Leon, with the same points, but a better goal difference (+3). The valuable defender, Goulart, served his suspension. Under 4 goals in 4 out of their last 5 matches.

It did great last week, in the big derby against Club America and got the three points, with a 2-1 home win. It had even fallen behind on the score from the 20th minute, but managed to turn it around in the 60th minute. It was the third consecutive win for the historic team from Mexico City, which will only lose its ticket to the Clausura playoffs miraculously. Now it is looking for the best possible placement in the standings, while still having minimal hopes for the top 6 of the table (quarterfinal phase). It’s important to note that it hasn’t been convincing away from its home stadium this season (1-2-4). Over 7 out of its 9 most recent games.
