San Luis and Pachuca on a rough trot
Sunday's Liga MX 2026/2027 matchup at Estadio Alfonso Lastras between Atletico de San Luis and Pachuca CF features two teams in mediocre-to-poor form.
The Tuneros arrive on the back of a three-game losing streak after being thrashed 4-1 in their previous away game to Nashville SC and holding Orlando City SC to a 2-2 draw in Orlando before losing the penalty shootout to go out in the first round of the CONCACAF Leagues Cup 2026/2027.
Diego Mejia, who took over at the helm on 1st July 2026, likes his side to be compact and look to punish mistakes, but his side have been too loose at the back lately and come into this matchup 15th in the Liga MX 2026/2027 with 2 points from 3 games.
Pachuca are only two places higher, but with 3 points from the same number of matches, so we are not expecting a walkover on Sunday. Benjamin Mora, who took over on the same day as Mejia, is having his Tuzos press high and look to play on the turn, turning recoveries into vertical, high-energy attacks.
Pachuca have an edge to edge San Luis
The Tuzos are the slight favourites at 2.18, which is about right for the matchup against a team that has taken 0 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses from their last 5 games in all current competitions.
Pachuca have 1 win and 4 defeats in the same period, so there's no value in supporting the visitors at the current prices when Atletico de San Luis are 3.1 and the draw is 3.4.
The Tuzos ran out of gas in their last Leagues Cup run, going down 2-1 to Columbus Crew and then winning 1-0 away at Charlotte, so there's enough to like about them to support Pachuca to edge this matchup.
However, Pachuca have failed to win any of their last 3 away games against the Tuneros, so it's not a case of the Tuzos having a heavy edge over San Luis, who can at least hold out for a draw in this contest.
The last Liga MX meeting finished 1-1 at San Luis 5 months ago and the overall head-to-head is level at 2 wins apiece with 1 draw in the last 5 meetings.
Pachuca have the pace and drive to score against a slow San Luis
The BTTS Yes line at 1.62 looks live for this clash and the over 2.5 goals line at 1.8 should also come in, given that Pachuca have the energy and verticality to get at a team that likes to slow the tempo.
Rafa Llorente has been San Luis' main threat so far with 2 goals in 3 Liga MX 2026/2027 matches and 3 in their last 5, while Jose Salomon Rondon has been Pachuca's danger man with 3 in 3 Liga MX 2026/2027.
Oussama Idrissi adds a bit of craftiness to Pachuca's line-up with 2 assists in 3 Liga MX 2026/2027 appearances and his ability to unlock a door should be a factor in an away win.
