Essential Leon vs Tauro Predictions for CONCACAF Champions League
The job isn’t done yet and Leon will have to again face Tauro on Friday if they want to advance to the next stage of the CONCACAF Champions League.
Contents
Leon/Leon
Our primary Leon vs Tauro prediction entirely favors the Mexican club. With three back-to-back victories in all tournaments, coach Nicolas Larcamon’s boys have been at their lethal best this season and we’re convinced they’ll continue with their refreshing style of play on Friday.
Sure, there’s much that can be desired when it comes to the Liga MX results this year, but the up-and-coming 38-year-old manager certainly is among the most ambitious managers in Mexico and he’ll want to turn the 1-0-0 record against Tauro into a confident 2-0-0.
Under 0.5 Tauro Goals
As we mentioned in our previous Leon vs Tauro prediction, Nicolas Larcamon’s boys did great in their last three fixtures. Not only did they crush their opponents but they did it with quite a style!
Having not conceded a single goal in 270 minutes of soccer, Leon are prime candidates for a clean sheet over Tauro on the 17th of March. Especially, when you consider that Nicolas Larcamon’s players will have solid home-field support to count on.

Leon odds: -192 – 64.0%
Draw odds: +370 – 20.0%
Tauro odds: +580 – 16.0%
A 16.0% win probability for Tauro isn’t convincing enough for one to risk a bet on this team at +580. Even a draw at +370 (20.0%) seems very far-fetched considering how well Leon are performing these days. Coach Nicolas Larcamon’s side’s 64.0% likelihood of winning should compensate for the odds at -192.
Leon vs Tauro Lineups & Team News
Leon
Despite Leon’s shocking 68% possession against Tauro in the CONCACAF Champions League game, coach Nicolas Larcamon would’ve loved a goal or two more as the 0-1 win doesn’t suit Leon’s stature. Nevertheless, it’s that sort of victory that Leon are achieving these days and we’re confident that they’ll continue to do so which is exactly what these Leon vs Tauro predictions were all about.
Predicted lineup – Cota (GK), Villa, Bellon, Frias, J. Moreno, Hernandez, Ambriz, Y. Moreno, Romero, Campbell & Rubio
Tauro
Tauro had 13 shots at target against Leon but they didn’t really make things difficult for Rodolfo Cota as the Leon legend only had to make routine saves. It takes a hell of a lot more to put a veteran like Rodolfo Cota in danger and we’re just not convinced Tauro have the required arsenal to cause an upset on the 17th of March. And you shouldn’t let the 2-0 win over San Francisco at Estadio Rommel Fernandez fool you – there’s much that should be improved in this Tauro squad before the team can be up to par in the CONCACAF Champions League.
Predicted lineup – Hughes (GK), Vargas, Cordoba, Caballero, Vence, Botello, Gudino, Medina, Camargo, Hernandez & Pena

Player to Watch: Rodolfo Cota
We already mentioned this name in the previous segment of our Leon vs Tauro prediction but we just can’t stress enough how important the 35-year-old goalkeeper is to Nicolas Larcamon. Rodolfo Cota is aging like fine wine and if he continues recording clean sheets for Leon, we just might see a new contract offer on the table for the legendary Leon goalkeeper. If Tauro want to leave Estadio Leon with some dignity, they’ll have to bring their A-game on Friday.
