Santos Laguna vs Unam Pumas Prediction: The home team are underdog lately

The Mexico Liga MX - Apertura- Round 2 matchup is scheduled between Santos Laguna vs U.N.A.M.- Pumas at Estadio Corona Stadium. Santos Laguna will aim to secure a win after they failed to secure a win in the opening matchup, while Club Universidad Nacional will aim to extend their winning streak to two following their recent opening matchup. Can Santos Laguna cruise to winning against U.N.A.M.- Pumas? Kindly use the information provided when considering your betting idea.

Poor Santos Laguna have failed to secure a win in any of their last seven encounters so far, in which they were recorded two ties and five losses. They tied against Club Tijuana and Club America and suffered defeats against Juarez, Necaxa, Pachuca, Atl. San Luis and Puebla. During these matches, they have scored four goals while conceding thirteen. Since they suffered a defeat in their opening match, they will hope to secure a win here as they will hope to end their most winless streak of seven.

Club Universidad Nacional, during their last five games, have recorded two losses, two ties and three wins. They suffered defeats against Cruz Azul and Detroit, and they tied against Queretaro and Cruz Azul. However, they won against Pachuca, Venados, and Club Leon in their opening matchup. In the course of these matches, they have scored eleven goals while conceding eight.

From 2020 till date, Santos Laguna and Club Universidad Nacional have played each other in eight times, in which Santos Laguna have won five games, while Club Universidad Nacional have won three. However, both teams were recorded in scoring against one another in four games and scoring above two goals were recorded in seven games.

I don’t expect a different performance from the home team even though they will be playing on their home soil since they have failed to secure any win in their last seven matchups, while I expect the visiting team to build on their recent winning performance here. Hence, I expect the visiting to be in their best defensive performance in order to prevent the home team from scoring, while I expect the visiting team to score more goals here and also cruise to win.
