Mazatlán

The clash will be played at Mazatlán’s home, which should adopt a more aggressive stance in search of victory in this round, aiming to debut in Liga MX on the right foot, but despite being considered with slight pre-game favoritism, the team does not expect to have life easy, just as they didn’t have in their pre-season matches.

After all, Mazatlán has already entered the field twice since the end of the previous edition of Liga MX and was defeated on both occasions.

In the most recent duel, the team faced Monterrey, at home, and got the worst of it by losing 2-1 in a close match in a match that followed the 1-0 defeat to Atlas in another friendly preparatory to official competitions.

Last season, the team ended its campaign in tenth place in Liga MX, qualifying to compete in the Play-In against Santos Laguna, who defeated it 2-1 and culminated in the early elimination of Mazatlán.

Atlético San Luis

Atlético San Luis, on the other hand, arrives for this match with the mission of surprising away from home, but is considered an underdog and arrives as a big question mark for the new season.

This is because in the previous edition the team had a commendable campaign, featuring some important upsets that made them reach the semi-final stage of the Apertura tournament, in Liga MX.

At the time, the team’s rise was interrupted by Club América, which came out on top by winning 5-2 on aggregate.
