The hosts will be looking to hold on to their strength at home and to extend their brilliant record in their ground. Luis Fernando Tena's team hasn't been consistent lately, although they've managed to get useful victories. Their next task, however, doesn't look easy.

FC Juárez vs Monterrey: Storylines and Head-to-Head

Neither of these two have won in the last round, although Monterrey's streak without triumphs is worse. Aguirre's side is needy to return to winning ways in order to chase the top positions of the standings. Moreover, they have been struggling on the road, having scored just one goal in the last three games away. The Rayados have a title-contending team, but they need to turn up their level to be at a better place.

However, Monterrey still are a tough rival for Juárez, even more if they are in need for a victory. Still, the hosts are going through an incredible run at home, the best in their history at Mexican's top-flight. They hold an undefeated record of five games at their venue, with two wins and three ties.
