They must remain focused
In the first leg, Comunicaciones took the lead, and after going ahead, Rayados took the ball and was able to come back, but both teams lost concentration and ended up paying for their overconfidence.

Rayados undefeated in all competitions
Rayados de Monterrey had a great start to the season and that has rewarded them with the overall leadership after six rounds and 14 points. In CONCACAF, their victory in the first leg against Comunicaciones makes them one of the best teams at present.
Rayados for the 2011 feat
Rayados del Monterrey in the then CONCACAF Champions League in 2011, defeated Comunicaciones at the Tecnológico with a score of 3-1, the Mexican team managed to lift the championship trophy in that same tournament.
Comunicaciones needs a miracle
For Comunicaciones to advance to the next round, they need a win by more than three goals and no goals conceded, any result with less than three goals or a draw by any score.

Watch out for this player from Comunicaciones
Carlos Mejia, Guatemalan player, at 32 years old, is one of the most experienced players on his team. To face Rayados, this type of player must use his experience to make a competitive team; in the first leg he scored the goal and this can give him the confidence to look for the comeback as visitors.
Watch out for this Monterrey player
Brandon Vasquez, forward. A player that thanks to his good seasons caught the attention of Liga MX teams, Rayados ended up taking the player after the departure of Funes Mori, the striker has responded in a great way and accumulated 3 goals in 4 games, if he continues at that level, he will be essential to advance in this competition.
Last alignment of Monterrey
Andrada, Gallardo, Moreno, Gutierrez, Medina, Gonzalez, Rodriguez, Romo, Cortizo, Berterame, Vazquez.

Arbitration quartet
To be confirmed.
Comunicaciones takes the risk or leaves
The team Comunicaciones of Guatemala, is currently one of the most competitive in their country, they have obtained their great prize by qualifying for the CONCACAF Champions League, this competition allows you to face teams from other countries that aspire to continental success, Comunicaciones had bad luck in the draw for the competition, as they had to face one of the most expensive teams in the conference, The first leg game against Rayados had started well, as they had taken the lead in the scoreboard, but the joy soon lasted, as Rayados came back and ended up beating them, now with the score very much against them they need to give their best game to advance to the next round.
Monterrey shows its value
Rayados de Monterrey is a very powerful team, economically, this team has invested in many talented players in search of titles, but the results have not been the best, the amount paid for their players has not been reflected in titles, the previous tournament they were eliminated in Liguilla against a rival that did not seem to be a great challenge, for this season Rayados made important changes and among those changes was to dispense with Rogelio Funes Mori, a characteristic striker for the institution, currently in Liga MX the team is the leader of the general table and has many possibilities of keeping it until the end, the COCNCACAF Champions League has to be the main objective of the team, in this tournament overconfidence punishes and that is why Monterrey did not skimp and got a great result in the first leg, for the second leg they simply must keep the result to advance to the next round, but for the entertainment of the public, the goals must come to leave with another victory.
A duel of formality
The second leg between Monterrey and Comunicaciones, seems to be defined even before the game started, what Rayados did in Guatemala on the field was enough to define the series, off-field things took the headlines, but undoubtedly a 4-1 score always attracts attention, now in the second leg, the complication is for Comunicaciones, as they have to score many goals to advance to the next round.
