On Sunday night, Deportivo Toluca and FC Juarez clash at the Estadio Nemesio Diez in the Mexican Liga MX in round three of the top-flight campaign.
The home side have picked up four points from their two league games this season, drawing 0-0 with Necaxa before a 2-0 win over Cruz Azul last time out.

The results mean that Toluca is unbeaten in three games in the Liga MX dating back to last season.
However, on the flip side, the home team has also won just three of their previous seven matches in the Mexican top flight.
Toluca has a strong recent home record in the Liga MX, as they are unbeaten in their previous ten matches, having recorded six victories in their last eight Liga matches on home soil.
They have also scored at least two goals in each of those recent home wins.
The visitors have picked up four points from their opening two Liga MX games.
However, they have won just once in their previous 13 matches in the Mexican top-flight dating back to January.
A 1-1 home draw with Tigres UNAL last time out continued a low-scoring trend for Diego Meija’s team, as there have been under 2.5 goals scored in six of their previous seven league outings.
Juarez has an inconsistent recent away record in the Liga MX. However, a 2-1 win at America in their last away match ended a six-game winless run on their travels in the Mexican top flight.
The fact that they have failed to score in four of their previous seven away games has not helped their chances of away wins.
Forebet predicts that this encounter will produce a low-scoring draw, which means both teams will maintain their unbeaten records in the Mexican top flight this season.
