Let’s check the latest soccer news, stats, injury reports and soccer odds for Mazatlan vs. Guadalajara. We’ve plenty of Liga MX picks and predictions for you to consider.
Mazatlan: Continued Search for Three Points
Mazatlan looked like they would be one of the top teams this season. However, after a loss against Puebla, the team hasn’t been the same. They lost the second game before going on a three-game draw streak — all 1-1 results against Pachuca, Atletico de San Luis and Pumas UNAM.
They are coming off a loss in their last game, their third defeat in six games. As a result, they’ve only gathered three points from the possible 18, which is abysmal for any team that wants to make it to the playoffs.
Gabriel Esteban Caballero Shicker needs to get his team back on track as they are yet to keep a clean sheet and have only scored two goals in one game. So, they must improve their play before the next game, especially in the goals department.
Guadalajara Also Seeking W
Compared to Mazatlan, CD Guadalajara has a better season, but the team is struggling to push into the top 12 zone.
However, they have only lost one since the start of the season. The highest they’ve conceded and scored in a single match is two goals.
Most of their games ended in goalless draws. Defensively, we can see that the team is doing well. The only problem comes when they have to score goals, which is a problem Ricardo Cadena has to look at before the next game.
Guadalajara would have to break the jinx of draws before it is too late for them to make it into the playoffs. This game is perfect for them to get into a good run this season. Cadena must find a way to get his attackers to start scoring plenty.
