The Clausura 2020 so far has been a wild ride so far and the unexpected teams are leading the league standings with outstanding performances and FC Juarez will search to continue a positive streak.

FC Juarez is currently enjoying a 4 winning streak in the Clausura 2020 that has left them so far in the league standings surprisingly in the 3rd place position with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss with a total of 10 points. Although its the midway start of the tournament, Los Bravos d

e Juarez still has a long way to go in the tournament but racking these points early in the tournament is certainly building their confidence. One thing that Los Bravos will need to tighten up would be their defense as they are one of the top teams so far that has 8 goals against in their first 5 games in the tournament and that could be a crucial point facing Rayados.

Across from FC Juarez will be the Rayados de Monterrey who are in a terrible situation and something that many could not expect and It is that La Pandilla has not won a single game in five games played and has only drawn two games and lost three leaving them dead last in the league standings with a total of just two points. Shocking to see and hear from the current Champions of the Liga MX after they put up a display in the Apertura 2019 under Antonio Mohamed midway of the tournament. It is obvious that Rayados could be the favorite team on Saturday night at the Estadio BBVA in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, with the power team they have on the field so they could arguably capture their first win and end their negative streak in the Clausura 2020. With the departure of Rodolfo Pizarro to Inter Miami in the MLS, It would be interesting to see how Rayados will move on in the Clausura 2020 with one of the notable players that Mexico has produced in recent years.

Next. One on one with Jen Munoz. dark

As Los Bravos go to Monterrey as the visiting team facing La Pandilla, It could be a game that could demonstrate the true identity of coach Gabriel Caballero team if they are going to be a fluke or a team that should be respected in the Liga MX. Or we could see Rayados spark a fire and wake up their Champion status, we might not just know so this game could be the most interesting of the Jornada 6 of the Clausura 2020.
