Essential Leon vs Puebla Predictions for Liga MX
In this article, we’ll go through the key Leon vs Puebla predictions for this week’s Liga MX matchday.
Contents
BTTS
Six of the last 10 matches between the two clubs ended with goals coming from both sides. Our top Leon vs Puebla prediction is for more of the same on Wednesday as the two managers strive to get much-needed three points.
The most common result in this rivalry is a 2-1 victory for either side so with that in mind, we expect the 90 minutes at Estadio Leon to be packed with good goalscoring opportunities in which the visitors will be the most likely winners.
Draw or Puebla
We have no idea why the bookies favor Leon so much. Perhaps it has something to do with the home-field support that coach Nicolas Larcamon’s boys will enjoy but even with such a solid advantage, they won’t be able to cope with Puebla’s solid momentum.
The visitors even have the head-to-head advantage as the last 10 showdowns ended with five victories for Puebla, one draw, and only four Leon wins. Our key Leon vs Puebla prediction is for the visitors to either get the full set of points or share the spoils with their hosts on Wednesday.

Predicted Lineups, Team News, and Last Result
Leon
Leon did well to crush Queretaro 0-3 in the last fixture. Everyone expected the game to be one of the easier Leon have to play but certainly, no one thought that Nicolas Larcamon had the strength for a 0-3 against a somewhat decent home team. Regardless, Leon won and are now deservedly in 11th place with seven points to their name. The team achieved only two victories, one draw, and lost two matches in the five games since the start of the season and that’s something we took into account for our Leon vs Puebla predictions.
Predicted lineup – Cota (GK), O. Rodriguez, Frias, Barreiro, J. Moreno, Mena, Romero, J. Rodriguez, Y. Moreno, Davila & Di Yorio
Puebla
Los Camoteros are our favorites to win for a couple of reasons. The head-to-head advantage over Leon is one of them but the momentum is also in their favor. After all, they have the same number of points as Leon and the last game was a joy to behold. Puebla crushed Mazatlan 3-1 at home and now the players will undoubtedly do their very best to get a result against Leon as well.
Predicted lineup – A. Silva (GK), Gularte, G. Silva, Aguilar, Gustavo, De Buen, Mancuello, Parra, Waller, Martinez & Barragan

Player to Watch: Lucas Di Yorio
After a brief quiet period, Lucas Di Yorio is back with a bang! Leon’s 26-year-old Argentine striker scored a lovely goal recently and while he isn’t exactly topping Leon’s goalscoring charts, he remains one of the key players at coach Nicolas Larcamon’s disposal. We’re convinced that Lucas Di Yorio will not only be the player to watch on Wednesday but he’ll also be a key figure behind our Leon vs Puebla predictions’ success.
