Necaxa vs Tijuana: match statistics
Despite poor form in their last five matches (0 wins, 1 draw, 4 losses), Necaxa shows better statistics at home, where they achieve a 31% win rate and average 1.15 goals per match. Tijuana displays very poor away effectiveness with only a 21% win rate and a high loss ratio (57%), conceding an average of 2 goals per match. A key factor is Necaxa's advantage in expected goals (xG 1.6 vs 1.14) and a significantly better average ball possession (51% vs 44%). Tijuana has a negative goal difference away from home (-10), indicating defensive and offensive issues on the road. Considering the home advantage and the visitors' weakness in away matches, Necaxa has a real chance to break the negative streak, although a draw also remains a likely scenario due to the hosts' current form.
