Following last week's match that ended in controversy, Tijuana will try to give Chivas a hard time, denying them of a spot in the Knockout stage in the Apertura 2014 Copa MX tournament.
Last week, Daniel Guzman's team lost on the pitch 2-0, but later in the week, Liga MX officers stated Tijuana started the match with eight players from their U-20 squad, violating the tournament's rules. Therefore, the game was awarded to Chivas with a 3-0 result. Tijuana will try to save face after last week's fiasco, keeping their focus on not providing Guadalajara a boost for the knockout stage.
On the other hand, Guadalajara will try to confirm their good forms in this tournament. Carlos Bustos team has been struggling to get results in the Liga MX tournament, but in this group stage for Copa MX, young players such as Sergio Napoles and Alberto García have proven quite useful for the team, maybe they hold the key to turn things around for Chivas in the other tournament, where they are facing relegation for the first time in their 108-year history.
Chivas control their destiny in this tournament. If they win, they'll seal their spot in the knockout stage. If they don't manage to earn three points, they will have to wait for other combinations, leading to a possible elimination and further criticism from fans and media. Tijuana, on the other hand, will try to perform a bad deed on Guadalajara, being eliminated last week after their "default" loss.
