Saturday's Liga MX Clausura action sees Club Leon and Santos Laguna doing battle at Estadio Leon, with both sides looking for their first victory of the season.
Leon have played only one game so far this season, a disappointing home defeat to Tigres UANL, who managed to pull off a remarkable come-from-behind to secure a 1-2 win in the second half.
Santos Laguna, meanwhile, remain without a win in Liga MX as they have lost one and drawn one of their opening two fixtures of the Clausura 2024 season.

Team news & squads
Leon team news
Club Leon parted ways with manager Nicolas Larcamon over the winter break following an underwhelming playoff finish in the Apertura 2023, and an early exit from the Club World Cup.
Former goalkeeper Jorge Bava has taken over the charge, and while it was a disappointing debut game for the recent Liverpool Montevideo coach, he will be hoping for a vast improvement from his side.
They have signed some prominent names in the winter break, with former Mexico captain and five-time World Cup participant Andres Guardado joining fellow recruits Alan Medina, and Gonzalo Napoli on the roster.
Leon predicted XI: Cota; Ramirez, Barreiro, Frias, Rodriguez; Silva, Ambriz, Rodriguez; Lopez, Vinas, Mena.
| Position | Players |
|---|---|
| Goalkeepers: | Cota, Blanco |
| Defenders: | Tesillo, Frías, Barreiro, Moreno, Rodríguez, Bellón, Ramírez, Villa, Torres |

The transfers of No. 10 Juan Brunetta to Tigres and defender Felix Torres to Corinthians will be a tough one to get over, but at least those sales have provided Santos Laguna with enough funds to oversee a recruitment drive.
