This is how the Pumas came out to win their last league game on the previous day: 

A. TALAVERA; 18. E. VELARDE, 23. N. FREIRE, 47. J. GALINDO, 2. A. MOZO, 31. W. COROZO, 8. HIGOR MERITÃO, 194. S. TRIGOS, 19. O. ISLAS, 33. DIOGO and 21, ROGÉRIO.

Without many spotlights, the best player of the university team has been none other than Alan Mozo, who plays perfectly on the right flank. 

He is a player who attacks well and has good speed from the wing, and although he has some shortcomings when defending, he has had a great tournament both up front and down low. 

Puebla's best player this season has been Fernando Aristeguieta, who has five goals in total. 

His performance tonight will be fundamental for a good attack by the local team and it is expected that he will be able to contribute with goals. 

The university players are on a streak of one draw and one win after having been defeated on several occasions. 

That is why today they will want to win again, as they did the previous day with a solitary goal by Diogo de Oliveira that set the final score. 

Despite having had a fantastic start to the tournament, the Puebla team is going through a three-game winless streak.

The last of these was a loss, against Toluca, in a match that ended 2-1 and the goal for the team of the strip was scored by Israel Reyes. 

The Puebla vs Pumas match will be played at the stadium Cuauhtémoc, in Puebla, Mexico with a capacity of 51,700 people. 

The stadium, also named "Coloso de Maravillas", is the fifth stadium with the largest capacity in Mexico after the Azteca, Olímipico Universitario, Jalisco, Estadio BBVA and is also the tallest in Mexico with 45.9 meters in height from street level to the roof.

Following its reinauguration on November 18, 2015, the Cuauhtémoc stadium became the first stadium in Mexico and Latin America to be completely covered with an ETFE façade, just like some European stadiums such as the Allianz Arena or the Nuevo San Mamés.

 

 

My name is Salvador Espino and I’ll be your host for this game. We will provide you with pre-game analysis, score updates, and news as it happens live here on VAVEL.

Puebla, after a good start, has gone downhill in terms of soccer in the last few days, with three consecutive games without a win, while the universitarios are experiencing what could be their best moment of the season. 

Tonight they will face each other from third and ninth place respectively in the general table, which could make for a very interesting match, as Puebla wants to remain in the direct classification zone and Pumas also aspires to enter the top four.
