Second-from-bottom Puebla play host to tenth-place Monterrey at the Estadio Cuauhtemoc in Liga MX on Tuesday night.
The hosts have been unable to kick-start their campaign despite being eight games into the new Liga MX season. With just one win and five points under their account, they are languishing in 17th, only one-point above rock-bottom Necaxa. They won their second of the season last weekend as they beat
It has been a dismal start to the season for head coach Ricardo Carbajal, who replaced Eduardo Arce earlier this year. Los Camoteros will look to arrest their slump in form when ninth-place Pumas come to Town, relying on home advantage.
Pumas, meanwhile, come into this encounter off the back of a thrilling 3-2 victory against second-place Atletico San Luis 3-2 at home. They look to be on the right path, and have pocketed 15 points from eight games (4W, 3D, 2L), level on points with Toluca and Atlas.
