Tijuana’s most prolific scorer has been Montecinos Naranjo. The attacker has netted two goals over the last five matches. Roberto Alvarado and José Macías are the top scorers for Chivas in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
