Once again, necessity makes its presence felt in Liga MX, as the Clausura has a match between two teams that have started with an irregular performance, as is the case of Toluca and Club León.
The Red Devils were visitors on the last date and lost 3-2 against Chivas in Guadalajara, allowing a goal late in the game.
The ‘Fiera’ also played away and squandered the lead, drawing 2-2 with Mazatlán.

Why Bet on Toluca?
Toluca is one of the historic teams in Mexican soccer, but it needs to retake form after an irregular period. The ‘Diablo’ lost 3-2 in the last match against Chivas in Guadalajara. Goals from Marcel Ruiz and Brian García were not enough to obtain some points at the Akron stadium.
The team has five points, one win, two draws, and one loss. The impressive thing is that this club has scored nine goals but has allowed seven. Chilean Jean Meneses is the club’s best player, scoring twice in four games. That is more than he did in the last semester when he did not score.
It’s of note that Toluca is a great home team, having lost only one of the last eight matches in front of their home crowd. For the time being, the ‘Diablos’ of Portuguese coach Renato Paiva have no injured or suspended players to play at home against Club León.
Why Bet on León?
Club León is the current Concacaf champion and should have a great semester in the Clausura 2024, since last season it was eliminated in the quarterfinals against the champion, Club América.
On the last matchday, the ‘Esmeraldas’ could salvage a point when it visited Mazatlán, drawing 2-2. Federico Viñas gave the ‘Fiera’ the lead, Gustavo Del Prete and Yoel Bárcenas turned it around, but Ángel Mena equalized at 57th. The 36-year-old veteran Ecuadorian winger is León’s most decisive player so far. He has scored three goals, all three consecutively in the last three games. In addition, he has two assists.
The ‘Fiera’ currently has only four points, although it’s of note that it has a game pending. So far, they have scored six goals but have conceded the same number. For now, Uruguayan Jorge Bava is not convincing in his work as a coach.
They report no injuries or suspensions for this match.
Final Betting Analysis: Toluca vs. León
The last meeting between these rivals ended in a 1-0 victory for León, with a goal from Nicolás López. Curiously, the previous four matches at the Nemesio Diez ended in a draw.
