Match Preview
The Apertura 2026 regular season has no Play-In round. Only the top eight clubs reach the Liguilla quarterfinals.
Pumas UNAM are 12th with 17 points from 14 matches, with four wins, five draws and five defeats. They have scored 20 goals and conceded 23.
Puebla are 14th with 16 points from 14 matches, with four wins, four draws and six defeats. They have scored 16 goals and conceded 21.
Eighth place starts the weekend on 20 points. A win would lift Pumas UNAM level with that mark, while a Puebla win would move the hosts above Pumas UNAM.
A draw helps neither club much. Both would stay outside the top eight with only two rounds left.
Recent Form
Recent form covers league matches only, with each club’s last five games listed in order, oldest first.
Puebla, last five: Tigres UANL 1-0 Puebla, Puebla 1-1 Leon, Tijuana 0-0 Puebla, Puebla 1-4 Monterrey, Atlas 4-3 Puebla.
Pumas UNAM, last five: Pumas UNAM 2-3 Atletico de San Luis, Pumas UNAM 3-3 Cruz Azul, Atlante 1-2 Pumas UNAM, Santos Laguna 2-0 Pumas UNAM, Pumas UNAM 1-1 Tigres UANL.
Puebla have no win in those five matches, with two draws and three defeats. They scored five goals and conceded 10.
Pumas UNAM have one win, two draws and two defeats in that run. They scored eight goals and conceded 10.
The defensive numbers are the shared problem. Puebla conceded eight goals across their last two matches alone, four against Monterrey and four at Atlas.
Team News
Puebla could welcome back midfielder Carlos Baltazar. Cronica Puebla reported on October 28 that he has completed his rehabilitation, rejoined training and could be considered by Gerardo Espinoza.
Baltazar has been out since September 26. He missed the four league matches that followed, which thinned Puebla’s midfield options.
Attacker Kevin Velasco is also building back up. He returned against Atlas last weekend, playing his first minutes after a muscle tear kept him out for six weeks.
Key Storylines
Pumas UNAM own this fixture lately. Liga MX’s Jornada 15 preview notes six straight matches without defeat against Puebla for Pumas UNAM, with five wins and one draw.
The last Puebla win in the series came in Clausura 2023, a 4-2 result at Ciudad Universitaria. Puebla have not beaten Pumas UNAM since then.
The last meeting swung late in Puebla. The clubs met at Estadio Cuauhtemoc in February 2026, in Clausura 2026, and Pumas UNAM came from two goals down to win 3-2.
Both coaches need a result now. Esteban Solari’s Pumas UNAM close the regular season at home against Club America and Monterrey, so points dropped here would raise the pressure sharply.
Prediction
Pumas UNAM have the stronger recent record in this fixture, and Puebla are winless in five. Prediction: Puebla 1-2 Pumas UNAM.
