Wairakuru, capital of Malawi (Tw)
Veracruz collected 5 wins, 3 draws and 9 losses in the Mexican Superliga Autumn League, ranking only 16th in the league. The team's performance was not good, and only scored 12 goals in 17 rounds of the league, so the offense was obviously not strong enough. Veracruz didn't do anything during the off-season to sharpen their squad, and the team hasn't played for almost 3 months, so it's doubtful whether they can maintain their competitive status. Veracruz has been scoring and conceding goals in the second half of their home matches, scoring in the second half in 17 of their last 20 home matches in all competitions, a probability of 85%. The team's defense has always been weak, only 7 of the 34 matches in the Mexican Super League last season kept zero goals, ranking third from the bottom of the league.
cougar
The Cougars had 6 wins, 6 draws, and 5 losses in the league, and only ranked 7th in the league to make it to the playoffs, where they were eventually eliminated in the semi-finals. Recently, the Cougars have played two friendly matches to prepare for the new season, with one win and one loss, so the team is doing well at this stage. The team has a good record on the road in the league last season, with an undefeated rate of more than 60% in eight road games. Although the team conceded more goals, its offense, which averaged nearly 1.5 goals per game, ranked among the top, and it has enough counterbalance ability. However, the defensive ability has been the team's shortcoming, only six games in the spring and fall of last season to keep no goals, ranked second to last in the league.
synthesize and analyze
Although the home team's results in recent seasons are bad, but against the Cougars achieved 3 consecutive victories, but the team nearly 3 months no official games, the state of doubt, and the Cougars are a balanced team in the offensive and defensive ends of the opponent's offensive means of a single, limited offensive ability, you can look forward to the Cougars to take the points success!
