Pachuca Preview

Guillermo Almada’s men battled hard last weekend, coming back from a two-goal deficit and having to play one man short for the remaining 20 minutes. Their 2-2 draw against Juarez was a true test for the Gophers how to deal with adversity. 

Checking in as a second-half substitute, John Kennedy keeps making an impact on the pitch when he performs. The 22-year-old striker last weekend got Pachuca on the board in the 60th minute, which brought his season total to seven goals through 10 appearances. 

Jose Salomon Rondon found the back of the net shortly after versus Juarez, which rescued a point for his employers. The 35-year-old striker is showing no signs of slowing down this year as he has garnered four goals in 844 minutes of action in Liga MX.

Mazatlan FC Preview

Víctor Manuel Vucetich’s troops left it late to capture a valuable point in their playoff chase with a late tally from the spot kick area. Their clash against Cruz Azul finished in a 1-1 draw, giving Mazatlan FC a result in three of their last four bouts. 

Converting from the penalty spot for his club last Friday, Nicolas Benedetti made sure his side would avoid a defeat. The primary attacking midfielder collected his second of the year, bringing his season goal contribution to five. Across all competitions played with the Canoneros, Benedetti has corralled 13 goals in 68 outings. 

Luis Amarilla suffered an injury back on February 20, his return for Saturday's tussle is in doubt, which hurts the attacking presence of Mazatlan. In his six Clausura starts this campaign, the striker has cataloged a goal and two assists. Since switching from MLS to Liga MX, the Paraguayan has amassed 12 goals and five assists since joining Mazatlan in June 2023.
