Who else is playing tonight? Looks like some great prizes.
Didn’t see a forum topic, even in the soccer category, so figured I would start it………
i’m in! i bet soccer anyway..so i’m so glad there is action tonight
Don’t know anything about it but I’m playing some lineups..where can I find odds or information on strong plays? Can anyone help a brother out? I usually play golf and NBA.

I hoped to start the thread to get some discussion on the slate tonight s I don’t know anything about it either. Guess no one else does, or they want to keep the info private!
For confirmed lineups/formations approx. 45 minutes pre-match: ligamx.net
Site is in Spanish; but hover over game in banner and click “minuto a minuto.”
As to accurate, up-to-date stats, etc., best of luck.
LineupHQ seems to be building decent lines, but will have dead spots that need to be filled.

Alright guys, I know nothing about soccer, but I’m in!
Thanks for that info fluffynuggets.
Thanks for the info Fluffy. I’ll play the $180. Familiar with EPL and see some regs in the GPP but I’m not sure about the LMX. DFS soccer is always fun though
No worries.
It is rare that I have anything substantive to add. Am happy to repay for the info/entertainment I glean from these boards.
I don’t follow LMX. Is there a site out there that lists spot/corner takers?
Thanks fluffy

Anyone know if it’s on tv? ESPN should be doing it. Ratings will be insane if it’s on

I found it!!! Fox Sports 2, channel 618 on directtv
Other game is on TUDN
Scoured google for some takes.

MORELIA
Monarcas Morelia are coming off a 2-1 away win at Necaxa and are riding a good run of form, as they have taken points in four of their last five games in league play (W3, D1, L1). They have struggled with consistency at home, however, posting a D1, L3 mark in four home Clausura matches.
Star playmaker Jorge Valdivia has been listed as questionable due to a leg problem, but he has missed the team’s last three games so his chances of playing here should be slim. Cesar Huerta is suspended, while Ray Sandoval will miss the remainder of the season due to an ACL injury.
Expected starting XI: Luis Angel Malagon; Carlos Vargas, Gonzalo Jara, Jose Enrique Ortiz, Sebastian Vegas; Rodrigo Millar, Aldo Rocha; Luis Angel Mendoza, Lucas Villafanez, Martin Rodriguez; Fernando Aristeguieta
QUERETARO
Queretaro are coming off a 1-1 home draw against Toluca, and that result extended their winless streak to three matches (D2, L1). They have not looked very good of late after a strong start to the season, as they have won just once in their last five league outings (W1, D2, L2).
Alexis Perez remains ruled out due to a long-term injury, and there is no clarity on when he will be able to return to action. Jeison Lucumi is doubtful due to an injury sustained last week, and he will be a game-time decision for the coaching staff.
Expected starting XI: Gil Alcala; Jaime Gomez, Julian Velazquez, Jorge Aguilar, Areli Hernandez; Clifford Aboagye, Michael Perez, Marcel Alejandro Ruiz, Fabian Castillo; Ariel Nahuelpan, Jeison Lucumi (Enrique Triverio)
THE PREDICTION
Monarcas Morelia might be riding a good run of form based on their recent results, but their home form has been awful and they currently rank as the worst home side in the entire Torneo Clausura. Queretaro have not fared much better during the last few weeks, but they have been the better side of the two during the entire season while also looking at their best on the road, where they have earned three wins in their five away outings thus far (W3, D1, L1) while going undefeated in the last four. The home/away splits are telling, and they should be enough reason to list Queretaro as favourites here.
THE TEAM NEWS
TIJUANA
Tijuana have been one of the worst teams in the competition and the results back that up, as they are coming off three straight losses following their 4-2 defeat at Cruz Azul in the previous match. Their playoff chances seem to be fading away despite the fact there are eight games left in the regular season.
Kevin Balanta has been listed as questionable after picking up a knock the last time out. They do not have confirmed absentees and Miguel Barbieri could be set to return following a one-game absence through suspension.
Expected starting XI: Miguel Gibran Lajud; Vladimir Lorona, Leandro Gonzalez Pirez, Miguel Barbieri, Aldo Cruz; Kevin Balanta (Christian Rivera), Jose Ignacio Rivero; Angel Sepulveda (Miller Bolanos), Alexis Castro, Mauro Lainez; Erick “Cubo” Torres
PACHUCA
“Inconsistency” could be a word to define Pachuca’s Clausura season thus far, but they seem to be trending in a positive direction over the last few weeks. Following a 1-0 home win over Santos Laguna, Los Tuzos have extended their undefeated streak to four matches (W3, D1).
Los Tuzos should be heavily depleted due to several absentees ahead of this contest. Emmanuel Garcia Vaca, Eugenio Pizzuto, Pablo Lopez and Victor Mora have all been ruled out due to injury, although Garcia Vaca is back in training and could return quite soon.
Expected starting XI: Oscar Ustari; Kevin Alvarez, Gustavo Cabral, Oscar Murillo, Miguel Angel Tapias; Erick Aguirre, Jorge Daniel Hernandez, Rubens Sambueza; Romario Ibarra, Franco Jara, Kazim
THE PREDICTION
Xolos de Tijuana have been downright awful this season and, aside from losing three straight matches, they have gone eight straight games without a win in league play (D3, L5). Pachuca, on the other hand, are riding a good streak of results and seem to be poised towards clinching a playoff berth while also featuring the second-best defensive record in the competition so far with just nine goals conceded. Pachuca’s record away from home has not been good (W1, L3), but they will take advantage of Tijuana’s issues to earn the win on the road.
I checked right before lock and had 3 players out. Definitely going to be a lot of people that did not check LUs
Don’t spend too much time on lineups until starters are announced. It’s also important to see if any players are playing out of position (i.e. D playing F). I don’t follow LMX so there’s a learning curve for me as well but soccer is soccer. I’ll spend the day tomorrow learning the league and probably approach it like PL.
Me was zzz. Goalie is out.
First time playing soccer. 12 lineups in dk gpp. Have a few lineups in the top 100 at half time. Rostered two of the three goals in half my lineups. Need Morelia goalie to pitch a shutout and it might be a decent day.
Actually went 4x. I didnt see if there were a lot of dead LUs but this was better than Esports.
I thank you too. I have a $3 ticket that expires on 3/31 so now I can use it “intelligently “ on a soccer GPP. I’ll PayPal you some bucks if I win something.
Who’s playing tonight? I got in the big $10 contest.

I am. I don’t know what I’m doing though.
Only showdowns tonight. Since I don’t follow LMX it’s hard to play on a slate with different start times. Ironically, these are the slates I prefer in premier league. Love the slates that have 4 games and cover 2 days during the week.
I’m in Noddy. Also zero clue here

So, I’m relying on Oddsharks predicted scores here and the odds…
https://www.oddsshark.com/soccer/liga-mx/computer-picks
I decided to have minimal exposure to the first game, because I think with it being the only game with starting line ups that maybe it’ll be over owned by us soccer fish. It also give me more flexibility with the starting line ups for the later games.
Once the 9 PM game line ups came out I’ll load up some there and literally just go by the FPPG totals on DK.
That’s my plan!
And Tabo who was in the L/U up until lock is out and I’m pissed, was my dude so here is hoping he comes in 2nd half and goes nuts!
