July 9th features a match where Tijuana plays host to Juárez in a clash of the Liga MX. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but hot day with daytime temperatures of 29 degrees, which hopefuly doesnt affect the pace of the match. Tijuana sits at 8th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-1 draw against Pumas UNAM. Lucas Rodriguez scored the first goal for Tijuana in the 10th minute on a penalty shot, then D. de Oliveira Barbosa tied it up for Pumas UNAM in the 51st minute on a penalty shot squeezing out at least the one point for Pumas UNAM. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 0 of their last 10, while juárez sits at 12th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-0 scoreless draw against Chivas. Chivas had 15 on net, and Juárez had 11, but no one could beat the goalie, and the game ended in a 0-0 draw,. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Last season Tijuana won the head to head battle with 1 win.
Flavio Santos and Gabriel Fernández are the top scorers for Juárez in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Tijuana is having problems scoring lately. Their top scorers, Montecinos Naranjo and Hiram Ricardo Mier Alanis each only have 1 goal in their last five.
