Leon face a desperate early-season battle to escape the relegation zone against a Pachuca side currently occupying a continental qualification spot.
Leon sit 16th with zero points and are already feeling the pressure of the relegation zone with 32 games remaining. Javier Gandolfi's side controlled possession in their last outing against Club Tijuana but failed to convert it into chances, eventually falling to a 1-0 defeat after conceding a penalty. This followed a high-scoring 3-2 home loss to Atlas, leaving the hosts searching for their first point of the campaign.
Pachuca currently hold 6th place and a continental spot with three points. They arrive following a 2-1 home loss to Club Queretaro, where they surrendered an early lead due to lapses in intensity. However, their away form is spearheaded by a dominant 3-0 victory over U.N.A.M. Pumas, showing they possess the clinical edge Leon currently lack.
