Player to watch: Paulinho

Toluca’s Paulinho took part in 30 league games this season. In 28 of those, he was a starter. This means that he was on the bench on only two occasions. Paulinho got booked only five times, but he already suffered through his suspension, which means he will play against Laguneros on the 7th of April.
