After an excellent start to the tournament, Tigres would like to keep the rhythm, and this time, they must face a Santos team in the Doldrums.
The Comarca Lagunera keeps being at a terrible moment after many bad campaigns. In their last game, they lost as visitors against Atlas 1-0.
The Felines are in a high mood as they managed to beat América again after some time without being capable of doing so. It was a 1-0 with a goal by Marcelo Flores.

Why bet on Santos?
With three games, two losses, and a draw, it is fair to say that Santos is still as bad as last season. The Comarca qualified for the previous Play-In by a fine margin and got eliminated quickly. After the departure of Brunetta and the suspension of Preciado, the team’s two best players, they have been in free fall, and it doesn’t seem like they’ll recover any time soon.
The team has conceded three goals, and their only conversion was via penalty kick. The generation of offensive plays has been poor, with only two shots, none at target.
It seems like another long season of reconstruction for the Torreon club.
Why bet on Tigres?
Tigres was not one of the protagonists of the transfer market like they are accustomed to, but that is primarily because they have a solid team with many great names already.They started the season on the right foot, and their victory over América gives them hope to keep the rhythm.
However, they should be careful, as the team was also pretty solid at the start of last season, leading the table alongside América and Monterrey, but their level fell apart in the second half of the campaign, and they were brushed off easily in the postseason.
Now they want revenge but need Ibañez to finally raise his level to step in as a good replacement for Gignac, as the veteran already seems outpaced and heavy on the pitch.
