Last match was victory of Gallos Blancos

Queretaro

The team lost last game their second match of the season as they allow defeat against Chivas, first they allow a penalty that Chivas FW Omar Bravo convert, with which that he arrives to the top of the goal scorers of the tournament. And time later, from a free kick the Chivas MF Ramon Morales score from free kick, in a strike that round the defense and get to a position where the GK will not reach it to score the second goal of the match.

From that moment Queretaro came out to look the match and generte good scoring chances, even in one take the ball inside the net, but was disallow due to a offside, the team hit the post three times, two by young MF Jose Piña in what shows that it was more thanks to accuracy,good luck and hard defense that Chivas won, more than to dominate the match, which Queretaro show important things, but still the defeat sent the team to the bottom of the porcentage table, and with the later victory of Santos, the team buries down more in the porcentage table.

Still there is hope for the team in two ways, first there are nine games to play and with a good streak they could avoid relegation, or tighten the fight so it is decided on the last round, second the team could win some points in the table as Santos could have had align GK Oswaldo Sanchez when he couldn't play and will loss some points one of those matches was vs Queretaro which will granted them two more points to get over their porcentage.

As also are on dispute the three points they loss at the end of last season because not fulfilling with U20 rule. Third the team is making good things, not free is that they are the second best defense with 5 goals allow in eight matches, but is to highlight that in last two matches the team have allow three goal., so maybe that good feature is on risk.

Their unattended task is the offensive as they are the worst attack with just 2 goals score in the last 8 games, if more to mentions ist that in last two games was that they score those two, but the team need urgento to balance this two features to be more competitive as they could allow some goals behing, just if they score more goals to be able to manipulate that deficit. But right now the team is solid on middlefield and provoking good plays.

The team have in mind that due to relegation every match is a final for them and should give the 110% which they do, but sometimes good luck isn't with them, their best weapon for this match is that they have barely allow 1 goal against them.

Necaxa

Last match the team lost of Atlante in a match where in first half Necaxa look weak in some instances, but also Atlante make good goals to take the advantage in the match. In the first half Atlante score a great of by U20 national team member FW Christian Bermudez which leaves GK Alexandro Álvarez without chance to stop it. From there Necaxa take the iniciative to attack as Atlante go laid back to defend their advantage. Atlante was able to score again before the end of first half as FW Gustavo Bizcayzacu convert a trought pass in a shoot over GK Alexandro Álvarez to score the second goal and reafirm Atlante in their defensive scheme.

For half time Necaxa send quickly their best weapons to the field as MF Everaldo Barbosa and FW Kleber Boas join the attack of the team to look for the goals to level the match, Necaxa look with more control and continue to generate scoring chances, but the tight defence and a great dispaly of Atlante GK Federico Vilar make it impossible for Necaxa to score. Even in this second part Necaxa allow a penalty , that altought stop by GK Alexandro, Atlante was able to take the rebound and score the third goal.

Necaxa didn't give up and continue attacking and making important scoring chanches some from long distance shoots that GK Federico Vilar control very well, but Necaxa was able to score in the last part of the match, but there was an offside of the team that disallow the goal, for the final score of 3-0. The team dead on the line fighting and never giving up and this has to be recognized.

Now the team gets to five matches without victory, still taking apart defeat against Cruz Azul, the other two have been result of their participation in Libertadores Cup, this is show that after Necaxa won 1-2 in Peru, the team lost 2-4 to Chivas. Next week the team won 2-0 to Audax Italino, then lost 3-0 to Atlante. Necaxa finally had this week without midweek game and will help to rest and regain their international display on home tournament, as they have a very interesting team, with good players as MF Barbosa and FW Kleber Boas, with good ball movement.

In Libertadores Cup, the team have an excellent run being unbeaten and going to face Sao Paulo in a match that if Necaxa won and continue with their good display here will soon get their classification to next round and focus more on local tournament where they are loosing the terrain they have gain in the first rounds of the tournament.

Injured:

FW Jose Manuel Salgueiro

Match:

A rested team of Necaxa will posses a hard oposition against Queretaro, and for this witht their ball movement Necaxa could take control of the actions and make Queretaro pass a hard time.

Prediction:

The match according to the odds is that Queretaro will be able to take a home victory, but I think this is expected due to the last results of Necaxa, but as this midweek the team rest from Libertadores Cup activity which have been the reason of their last bad results, I expect them to be able to perform better and I see great value on Necaxa.
