Match preview
Querétaro have lost four league games in a row. They were beaten 5-0 at Santos Laguna, 2-1 at Atlético San Luis, 3-1 at home by Cruz Azul and 3-1 at FC Juárez on 31 October.
Before that slide came a 2-0 home win over Atlante on 10 October, their only victory in their last five. During the four-game losing run they scored three goals and conceded 13.
At home, Querétaro have won two, drawn one and lost three of their six matches, scoring eight and conceding nine. Their away form is better, with four wins from eight. Their goal difference is minus three.
A. Ávila is the main attacking threat with six goals this season. He needs support, as the team have not scored more than once in any of the four defeats.
Puebla are winless in eight matches, according to Puebla Online. They have lost three and drawn two of their last five.
They lost 2-1 at home to Pumas on 31 October, 4-3 away to Atlas and 4-1 at home to Monterrey. Before that, they drew 0-0 at Tijuana and 1-1 with León. They have conceded 11 goals across those five games.
La Franja are 14th with 16 points from 15 games and a goal difference of minus six. Local media say their Liguilla hopes are minimal. On the road they have won three, drawn one and lost four, scoring nine and conceding 11. They have won only once in seven home league games.
Recent history favours Querétaro. They have won four of the last five meetings, including a 2-1 victory at Puebla on 25 April 2026. They also won 3-1 in October 2025 and 2-0 in March 2025. Puebla's only success came in September 2024 (2-1).
This is the penultimate round of the regular season. El Universal lists Querétaro among the sides still alive in the Apertura 2026. Puebla are looking to end a long winless run in a campaign that is slipping away.

Team news
Querétaro have no reported injuries or suspensions for the visit of Puebla. A. Ávila remains the focal point of the attack after his six goals this season.
Puebla also have no injured or suspended players in the reports we checked. They arrive needing points after losing to Pumas in their last match.
Neither side has a confirmed line-up from a reliable sports source, so we have not included predicted starting elevens. Both teams played on 31 October and have had eight days to prepare.
Querétaro return to La Corregidora, where they have won two of six this season. Puebla come in without a win in their last five matches.
We think Querétaro will edge a tight contest 1-0. The hosts hold the recent head-to-head advantage and play at home, while Puebla are winless in eight and have conceded 11 goals in five games. Even so, Querétaro's scoring drought points towards a cagey afternoon.
