- The second-placed hosts have collected 21 points from their nine matches so far in the 2025/2026 campaign and appear to be on an upward trajectory under coach Marco Ruiz, who has installed a pragmatic, defence-first system since taking over in December 2024.

Mineros De Zacatecas
- Mineros De Zacatecas are winless in 5 league games, drawing 4 and losing 1.

This should be considered in any Jaibos Tampico Madero vs Mineros De Zacatecas betting tips you consult.
- Luis Muñoz has taken over as interim coach after Mario Alberto Garcia, who had managed since November 2024, and there is an air of unpredictability about them at the moment.
