Santos Laguna will face its first home game of the season this Saturday night against Atlas, and even though their fans are expected to bring solid support at the TSM Stadium, Santos will most likely face deep trouble finding offensive effectiveness on the pitch. Considering this, managing to sustain a strong defense during the first half will be key to neutralizing Atlas’ attackers.
With this objective in mind, Salvador Mariscal and Carlos Gruezo should increase their defensive participation, especially after offering a very bad performance during the first half against Monterrey. Furthermore, head coach Renato Paiva is well-known for favoring an offensive approach, so at some point of the season he’s expected to put Lucas Di Yorio and Eduardo Aguirre in the initial lineup.
Meanwhile, even though Atlas secured a victory in their first road game of the season, their structure is expected to face big changes with Hernán Crespo’s arrival on the bench, as he is recognized for focusing on building a solid defensive structure on the pitch. However, the Argentinian head coach could be surprised by Duk's offensive performance, as he was able to score a goal in his first official game.
