Ah, here we are peering at a spectacle lined up between Santos Laguna and Atlético de San Luis. Quite the amusing set up if you ask me, with each team having had their candle of victory lit up against each other in the past. But, past is past my dear friend.
Our gentlemen from Laguna have faced a bit of a hiccup during this season, albeit managing to wedge victory against their recent competitors, Club León and Atlas. They seem like a toddler learning to walk, a couple of missteps but getting there on their own sweet time.
On the flip side, Atlético de San Luis, though having the same number of wins as Laguna this season, have garnered more losses. One might suggest they're best friends with loss this season. Their current form is equivalent to a rollercoaster that only travels downwards. A validator being their meeting against Cruz Azul, not the kind of meeting you'd want to remember, yes?
With the odds seemingly tilting towards Laguna, one must remember San Luis has had a taste of victory against Santos Laguna, a hearty one at that. This matchup has all the flavors; an excruciating season form, nostalgia, and a hint of unpredictable results, just the way we like it in sports.
But once the dust settles on this match, my intuition, albeit sometimes as clear as mud, leans in the favor of Santos Laguna.
