Club Puebla are among the underdogs in this season’s playoff despite pulling off a fair few upsets in the regular season. With only 43% possession and five shots on target, perhaps Puebla didn’t deserve to snatch a draw in the first-leg, but they have shown to be a prolific counter-offensive side.
The Puebla attacking department will be headed by 28-year-old striker Guillermo Martinez, who has scored eleven goals in 17 appearances this season. He has scored six goals in the last four games, including his side's opener in the first-leg, and aims to continue his goalscoring run this season.
