They have found the back of the net 2.40 times per match on average during this period, showcasing an attacking prowess that has been difficult to contain. In comparison, Club Queretaro sits 10th in the standings and has struggled in recent outings, losing three of their last five matches. They have managed to score just 0.40 goals per game in the same span, suggesting a lack of cutting edge in the final third.
