On Tuesday, April 4, Leon plays Violette at Estadio Leon in the Concacaf Champions League. To advance to the quarterfinals, the hosts outmuscled Tauro of Panama 1-0 away and 2-0 at home. Along with UANL, Pachuca (who were eliminated), and Atlas, Club Leon is one of four Mexican teams in the Concacaf Champions League. In any competition, they have yet to meet Violette. In 11 games, Los Panzas Verdes have not lost. They have four successes in their last five games across rivalries, scoring nine objectives and yielding three. Leon are also competing for the Liga MX Clausura championship. They are third in the table with 25 points, nine points behind Monterrey, which is in first place.
Violette, on the other hand, are the Concacaf Champions League’s unexpected package. They beat Major League Soccer’s Austin FC 3-2 in both legs in the Round of 16 to advance to the quarterfinals. In the 2020-21 season, the Haitian club won their domestic top flight. However, the political unrest in the country has prevented them from participating in any local games since then.
Le Vieux Tigre, on the other hand, are not new to the continental competition. In 1984, when it was known as the CONCACAF Champions’ Cup, many people are unaware that they have won the Concacaf Champions League once. In their last five contests, Violette have won just twice, both of which were at home.
Prediction
In the host competition, Elias Hernandez, Ivan Moreno, and Brian Rubio have each scored once. Director Nicolas Larcamon will anticipate a more grounded presentation.
Miche-Naider Chery has assisted on two of the visitors’ three goals thus far. He is still one to keep an eye out for. They should have an advantage over Violette due to Leon’s teamwork and superior collective efforts.
Prediction: Leon 3-1 Violette

Team news
Now, Violette will focus on Club Leon and attempt to make even more history for their club and country. The Mexican teams have won eight of the previous nine matches between clubs from Haiti and Mexico, while one match has ended in a draw.
However, Violette possesses the ability to end that drought. FW Miche-Naider Chery was a small bunch for Austin FC in scoring two of his group’s three objectives, while focused MF Steeven Saba finished 48 passes in the past round over the two legs and won endless fouls for his side.
After defeating Tauro FC of Panama 3-0 in the Round of 16, Club Leon has made it to the SCCL quarterfinals twice in a row. The Mexican team, which is attempting to reach their first SCCL semifinal, gave a commanding performance.
Youngsters Fidel Ambriz and Brian Rubio have each scored a goal, and veteran playmaker Elias Hernandez has been outstanding, contributing a goal and an assist thus far.
Club Leon will be eager to get off to a strong start in Concacaf play with an overall record of 8W-4D-1L at home.
