The hosts are gunning to win their third game in a row, while Pumas want to give star signing Dani Alves his first win with them. Follow the match with our guide.

One of the most interesting games in the Mexican top-flight will see Chivas hosting Pumas UNAM at Estadio Akron this evening. Chivas have built some momentum before this game, while Pumas are becoming desperate to win games after a five-game drought. Usually, Chivas have thrived when they face Los Universitarios at home, which has seen their fans become confident about the outcome of this match.

Guadalajara are currently ranked eleventh in the current Apertura 2022 tournament, product of two wins, six draws, and two losses. El Rebaño has gone three games without a loss, and Cadena's men have only lost one of their six home games of the season, although they have only been able to win one. Their most recent loss at Estadio Akron came on Matchweek 2 against San Luis (0-1).

On the other side of the pitch, Pumas UNAM have not been able to win any of their last seven games, although only three of them have concluded in defeat. In what has been a hectic schedule for the team from Mexico City, they have only played two away games this season, and as you may already know, they have not been able to win any of them. Hence, this is a crucial clash for them to stop sliding down the ranks, as they are currently 15th in the tournament.

Let's have a closer look at the main talking points ahead of this game.

Guadalajara vs Pumas UNAM - Team news

Guadalajara finally put an end to their winless run in the competition in recent games, as they claimed two victories in a row to climb up the standings. Now, Ricardo Cadena's mencould climb to seventh place if they can find a way to get past Pumas' defense. One of their unfinished tasks is their goalscoring prowess, which has been complicated for them for quite a while, and their ten goals after ten games is not as flattering as you would expect from a big team.

Pumas will enter this match with three losses in their past five games. The team has been unable to win matches since Dani Alves joined them, and some believe it would be time to change their tactics to favor the player and the team's fortunes. Last Wednesday, the club seemed about to win their first match with the Brazilian player, but a late goal by Tigres UANL ended their hopes for three points in the final moments of the match.

Guadalajara - Injured: Jesús Molina, José Juan Macías, Antonio Briseño.

Pumas UNAM - Injured: Julio González.
