Two clubs chasing the Apertura Liga MX title will do battle today in a league match between Club Tijuana and Queretaro. The first-division clash scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET will be held at the Estadio Caliente in Tijuana and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on ESPN Deportes.
Queretaro midfielder Sinha had this to offer in defense of his manager Ignacio Ambriz (via Univision): "I don't think anyone does their job to come out bad. He doesn't walk onto the pitch and every week he works so the team does the best it can. The fans always want results, but we want the results more than them. I think it's unjust [that they're criticizing Ambriz]."
When asked about the remainder of the season, he added: "There's no margin for error. The idea is that from here on out, we can't drop points. If we want to qualify [for the playoffs], we have to win at least four games."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Tijuana's Greg Garza featured at left-back for the U.S. men's national team in recent international fixtures. The 23-year-old will look to provide the team width at home tonight.
Tijuana's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Saucedo; Gandolfi, Pellerano, Nuñez, Garza; Guemez, Corona, Arango, Toledo; Moreno, Benedetto
Queretaro's Projected Lineup (4-4-1-1): Hernandez; Corral, Martinez, Corona, Osorio; Osuna, Sinha, William, Silva; Ronaldinho; Sanvezzo
