Club Leon faces FC Juarez in the tenth round of Liga MX Apertura. Leon enters with excellent home form, winning their last three at Estadio Leon and holding a dominant record over Juarez, who have struggled away and sit bottom of the table despite a recent win. Leon's defensive solidity and attacking prowess, with at least two goals in recent home wins, give them the edge. In-form players and notable injuries for both sides are detailed. Expect Leon to secure another home victory, likely with two or more goals scored.

Club Leon vs FC Juarez Predictions

Club Leon and FC Juarez meet on Sunday in the tenth round of the Liga MX Apertura.

Leon have been in far better form, and they should have the quality to see off struggling Juarez. 

I have my stake on a home win with at least two goals scored. 

Stats Point to a Home Win


  • Club Leon won their last 3 home matches (Liga MX)
  • Club Leon scored 2+ goals in 3 of their last 4 home matches (Liga MX)
  • Club Leon won their last 4 home matches against FC Juarez
  • FC Juarez conceded 2+ goals in 2 of their last 3 away matches against Club Leon
  • FC Juarez lost 6 of their last 7 matches
  • FC Juarez conceded 2+ goals in 6 of their last 7 matches

Club Leon Dominate Recent H2H Record

Club Leon and FC Juarez have met thirteen times since 2020. Leon won eight of those matches, while Juarez secured just two victories. 

Leon eased to a 3-1 win in their most recent encounter earlier this year. 

Club Leon Look to Maintain Strong Home Form

Club Leon come into this weekend’s Liga MX contest after a 1-1 draw at Queretaro in their most recent Apertura fixture.

Daniel Arcila gave the visitors a 54th-minute advantage from the penalty spot before Iker Benito secured a point for the hosts. 

Both teams created plenty of chances in an evenly balanced Liga MX contest. Leon registered 14 shots and finished with a higher xG total (2.11-1.88), despite Juarez’s 19 efforts on goal.

Javier Gandolfi's side have been in solid form over the past couple of months. The Green Bellies won nine and lost only two of 13 games played since the start of August.

A strong run in home fixtures should also give the hosts confidence for Sunday’s Liga MX matchup. Leon won their last three home games, with clean sheets kept in all three victories, including a 2-0 win against Monterrey. 

Nine games into the Apertura phase, Gandolfi’s men sit sixth in the division with 14 points on the board. 

FC Juarez End Long Losing Run

FC Juarez travel to Leon after a much-needed 2-0 home victory against Tigres in their most recent Liga MX fixture.

Oscar Estupinan scored a second-half double, converting a penalty before heading in a cross from Jose Luis Rodriguez. 

Both teams created plenty of chances in a competitive contest. Juarez edged the shot count (14-13) and finished with a higher xG total (1.84-1.67).

Despite that welcome result, Gustavo Lema’s side remain rooted to the bottom of the division after losing each of their first eight Liga MX fixtures this season. 

On the road, the Braves have failed to live up to their nickname. Juarez lost all four away Liga MX matches since August, including heavy defeats at Monterrey (6-1) and Toluca (4-0). 

The visitors also slipped to a 2-1 defeat at fellow strugglers Santos Laguna in their most recent away fixture. 

Club Leon vs FC Juarez Team News

Club Leon (4-1-4-1) Julio Gonzalez; Ivan Moreno, Jhohan Romana, Juan Guevara, Sebastian Vegas; Jose Ivan Rodriguez; Jordi Cortizo, Jose Alfonso Alvarado, Fernando Beltran, Edgar Guerra; Diber Cambindo.

Head coach Gandolfi has a couple of injury concerns to deal with this weekend. 

Luis Valadez remains sidelined with a foot issue while Angel Estrada is doubtful with a leg injury.

Colombian forward Diber Cambindo is expected to spearhead the home attack. Cambindo has scored three goals in eight appearances this season.

FC Juarez (5-3-2) Sebastian Jurado; Francisco Nevarez, Daniel Pina, Gilberto Sepulveda, Jesus Murillo, Javier Aquino; Monchu, Guilherme Castilho, Rodrigo Dourado; Madson, Oscar Estupinan.

Juarez boss Lema has a few injury issues ahead of the trip to Estadio Leon. 

Jairo Torres and Bryan Romero face late fitness tests while Lucas Romero is unavailable with a long-term cruciate ligament injury.

In-form forward Oscar Estupinan is a cert to feature for the visitors. The Colombian forward has scored five goals in his last six appearances. 

Verdict

Leon have won three in a row at home and have beaten Juarez in each of their last four meetings at Estadio Leon.

I expect the hosts to claim the points, with at least two goals scored.
