Tags:

Two clubs chasing the Apertura Liga MX title will do battle today in a match between Cruz Azul and Leon. The first-division clash scheduled for 6 p.m. ET will be held at the Estadio Azul in Mexico City and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on Univision Deportes.

What They're Saying

Cruz Azul midfielder Marc Crosas joined the club following Leones Negros' relegation last season. The 27-year-old now faces the pressure of delivering a Liga MX title, the illustrious crown that has eluded the club since 2013.

"What I feel is that I'm in big club [now], he said, per Esto. "The pressure is the requirement to do great things. It is true that in recent years we have not achieved our objectives. Not to devalue the Concachampions title [we won in 2014], the trophy may become important, [but] we feel lifting the league trophy is more important for the greatness of the club."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Mauro Boselli scored a brace for Leon in last week's 4-1 victory over Veracruz. The 30-year-old has a league-best four goals this campaign.

Cruz Azul's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Corona; Pinto, Dominguez, Rodriguez, Toledo; Crosas, Torrado; Santos, Gimenez, Silva; Rojas

Leon's Projected Lineup (4-5-1): Martinez; Velarde, Burdisso, Moran, Ibarra; Burbano, Hernandez, Montes, Vazquez, Peña; Boselli
