Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals the standout bet
Cancun FC boss Miguel Ángel Bravo has quickly implemented his compact, counter-attacking gameplan onto his side and they have caught fire of late. His side can play in a 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1, depending on the game, but will always prioritise compactness in defence and explosive transition when they get the ball.
In Jose Rodriguez, who has scored eight goals in twelve Liga de Expansion games, Cancun FC have a hot finisher who can score from anywhere and has netted four times in the last five. Denilson Munoz has chipped in with two goals in the same period for Leones, who have been in mixed form, winning once, drawing twice and losing twice in their last five.
Leones boss Alfonso Sosa, in charge since September 2021, has built a side that are disciplined, structured and well organised as a unit. They prefer to build up in a patient 4-2-3-1, but do have a targetman in Alejandro Bravo, who leads the team’s scoring charts with three in 13.
