Veracruz v Pachuca
Wednesday 02:00

AFC Utd 2 Sirius 2 in Sweden yesterday. And it all looked so good when it was goalless with less than 20 minutes to go.

Anyway, Veracruz have started their Mexican Primera Division campaign by picking up 13 points from a possible 15 at the Luis Pirata de La Fuente.

The Sharks have scored exactly twice in all five games and conceded in each of the most recent four - which have therefore all delivered Over 2.5 Goals.

Going back to last season, Carlos Reinoso has overseen at least three goals in 9/14 home games since taking charge.

Tonight's visitors are Pachuca, who have scored at least twice in all four of their away matches so far this term.

In total it's 12 away games since Diego Alonso took the reins and the Gophers are yet to register a clean sheet in any of them. Both teams have scored in each of the last 10 - nine of which have gone Over 2.5 Goals.
