Having made an excellent start to the Leagues Cup campaign, the men coached by Davy Arnaud on an interim basis will be looking to make it two wins from two on Sunday, when they'll play host to Puebla at Q2 Stadium. The Liga MX visitors did not make a decent start to the competition, losing heavily. They now look up against it facing in-form opponents.
This looks like a more than viable opportunity for the hosts, who've made a habit of getting the job done on home soil in recent times. The way in which they performed during the first round of Leagues Cup games suggests that they've got enough quality to tackle this game and come out on top, as does the way in which the visitors struggled massively against the Timbers, who really did run riot against what appeared to be a rather weak Puebla defense.

Our Austin FC vs Puebla Prediction
As the stats above show, the Puebla boys are struggling massively to get going away from the comforts of home, and it is absolutely fair to say that they were hammered last time out, losing by five goals to two away to the Timbers. Despite producing some promising offensive moments, they were easily outplayed, offering very little defensive resistance, and that's becoming a theme, which is why they've lost six of their last seven on the road.
In contrast, the hosts look strong at Q2 Stadium, where they've won three on the bounce, scoring nine goals, conceding just one in the process. At odds of -125, they're well worth betting on to emerge victorious from this game.
