Exclusive Leon vs Atletico San Luis Predictions & Betting Suggestions

Coach Andre Jardine and his Atletico San Luis will try to put a dent in Leon’s tremendous run this season on the 7th of May. Stay tuned to find out if that will be the case in our Leon vs Atletico San Luis betting tips.

Under 0.5 Atletico San Luis Goals

Let us preface this Leon vs Atletico San Luis prediction by saying that the visitors lack attacking punch. After last week’s brawl versus Atlas, we are convinced. It’s not that Atletico San Luis didn’t have goalscoring chances. On the contrary, coach Andre Jardine’s boys were hammering away in desperate attempts to find the net, and after 24 shots at target, the result on the scoreboard was still 0-0. And it requires a world-class attack to penetrate Leon’s sturdy backline.

Coach Nicolas Larcamon’s team barely conceded 13 goals in the Clausura campaign this season. It will take something unorthodox for Atletico San Luis to find the net on the 7th of May.

Leon/Leon

With a defensive line as unyielding and convincing as Leon, we can’t imagine coach Nicolas Larcamon losing this game. We expect Leon to get the lead in the first half of the match and finish off Atletico San Luis’ dreams in the second.

The Leon vs Atletico San Luis head-to-head record is certainly behind us on this one as the last 10 matches between the two rivals ended with six victories for Leon, two draws, and barely two Atletico San Luis victories.

Leon vs Atletico San Luis Lineups & Team News

Leon

The sneaky fox Larcamon lined up in an ultra-defensive 5-3-2 formation on the 1st of May. Tigres UANL were left shellshocked by this strategy as Leon did enjoy the home-field support. The logical thing was that Leon will attack. However, relying on the counter-attack proved decisive as Leon not only scored three past Roberto Siboldi’s goalkeeper but in the meantime, Rodolfo Cota earned himself a clean sheet.

Predicted lineup – Cota (GK), Castillo, Barreiro, Tesillo, Bellon, Rodriguez, Campbell, Romero, Angulo, Rubio & Alvarado

Atletico San Luis

Despite giving their best effort, Atletico San Luis couldn’t make chances pay on the 30th of April. With 24 shots at target and a whopping 62% possession, coach Andre Jardine’s boys deserved to score one or two. However, they didn’t have the quality in the penalty box and when you’re about to face Nicolas Larcamon’s side, you must be lethal up front. That’s why our Leon vs Atletico San Luis predictions favor the former.

Predicted lineup – Barovero (GK), Chavez, Pinuelas, Bilbao, Sanabria, Dourado, Guemez, Arantes, Villalpando, Murillo & Zaldivar

Starting Lineups

*Starting lineups are usually announced 1hr before the kick-off

Player to Watch: Rodolfo Cota

Our Leon vs Atletico San Luis predictions can’t end without us mentioning Rodolfo Cota. The 35-year-old veteran should be reaching the end of his career and his skill should be declining. However, we see nothing of the sort from Cota in recent years. And this season in particular.

With barely 13 goals conceded in the Clausura campaign, Cota is proving to be coach Nicolas Larcamon’s key player this season. If he pulls off another remarkable piece of goalkeeping on Sunday, we just might see Leon advance to the next stage with a clean sheet to brag about with.
