Two clubs chasing the Clausura Liga MX title will do battle today in a league match between Veracruz and Toluca. The first-division clash scheduled for 9:30 p.m. ET will be held at the Estadio Luis Fuente in Veracruz. It can be live streamed here free and via the Univision Deportes mobile app. Additional TV coverage can be found on Univision Deportes.
What They're Saying
Veracruz midfielder Edgar Andrade (via Esto): "I think later or early on, if we keep generating chances, the goals will fall. We have had some clear-cut opportunities. We try to play good football. We try to reach the goal, but we can still do better."
Toluca defender Jordan Silva (via Esto): "[Veracruz] are staving off relegation and have been having a good tournament. They have shown confidence and we are in a good run of form. I think it will be a very intense game, one where it will be more concentrated."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Paulo Da Silva scored a timely goal in last week's 2-2- draw with Santos Laguna. In six appearances this season, the 35-year-old has one goal and an assist. He'll look to anchor a potent Toluca defense.
Veracruz's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Hernandez; Cortes, Romero, Lopez, Paganoni; Penalba, Vaca, Andrade, Meneses; Villalva, Furch
Toluca's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Talavera; Rodriguez, Silva, Silva, Rojas; Ortiz, Rios; Benitez, Lobos, Esquivel; Ontiveros
