Queretaro FC host Toluca at Estadio Corregidora on Saturday, August 22 (7:00 PM ET / 6:00 PM CT / 4:00 PM PT).
Queretaro FC and Toluca both check in with clean bills of health, no fresh absences flagged on either side ahead of this one. Ali Avila leads the home attack after 3 goals from 10 shots, with 6 of those on target, while Santiago Homenchenko has chipped in with 5 chances created behind him. Toluca will look to Alexis Vega and Jorge Diaz to carry the same threat they’ve shown all season, Vega racking up 9 shots and Diaz leading the visitors with 7 chances created.
Both sides sit level on 7 points from 4 games apiece, but Toluca’s +3 goal difference edges out Queretaro’s +1, and it’s the away side Signal gives the nod to here. Neither team found the net in their most recent outing — Queretaro drew 0-0 at Pumas UNAM, Toluca did the same at Atlante FC — and that low-key look sets the tone for a cagey affair. Expect a tight, low-scoring game where one moment of quality from Toluca’s front line settles it.

Queretaro FC vs Toluca Prediction
Signal makes this a tight, low-scoring night in Queretaro, and it’s Toluca to edge it 0-1. Both sides come in level on seven points from four games, but Toluca’s superior +3 goal difference against Queretaro’s +1 is enough to swing this one their way without either attack finding a second goal. Expect Under 2.5 goals and no joy in Both Teams to Score, with Alexis Vega the man best placed to land the goal that decides it.
