UNAM Pumas host Necaxa on the fifth matchday of the Liga MX Apertura. The hosts' home record so far is the opposite of their away form: Pumas, sixth on 7 points, have yet to score in their two home matches, while on the road they have won both games and scored 7 goals. Necaxa, twelfth on 6 points, have an away record of just one goal scored and three conceded in their only away fixture. The average in this league currently sits at 2.86 goals per match. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one. The data and assessments here are provided for information and statistical purposes.
