The away team has taken a commanding lead after the first leg, but Puebla will try to put up a fight in front of their supporters.

The return leg of the semi-final tie between Puebla and Santos Laguna could hold a big surprise for those who believe the tie has already been decided. Puebla may have lost the first leg with an emphatic 3-0 score, but Nicolás Larcamón's team has what it takes to fight in this clash against Los Guerreros.

Puebla will get to this game with their players not being able to score a single goal in the playoff stage. The only goal for La Franja came via an own goal by Atlas, which eventually gave them their spot in the semis. If Puebla want to make things happen, then players such as striker Santiago Ormeño have to step things up to help their team win this tie and eventually dream about a comeback.

As for Santos, the team coached by Guillermo Almada managed to make their homework last Thursday, but their boss has already stated that they will not lay back and relax with their lead. Their previous away game in the playoff stage saw Santos claim a late one-all draw against Monterrey, which means that they are the only unbeaten team in the playoffs at the moment.

The recent history between these clubs shows that Santos have absolutely dominated Puebla, with eight wins in the past seventeen games against La Franja. What really stands out is that Santos have not lost a game against Puebla since January 20, 2013, when the team from Puebla won one-nil. Their previous game in the regular season concluded with a goalless draw, which would be good enough to see Santos through this time around.

After what we saw in the first legs, Santos seem to be the most consistent side in the playoffs. Will they be able to cap that with a win here to get to the final in proper form? Let's see if Puebla can give their fans a glimmer of hope and keep us casual football fans interested in the match.
