Luis Montes, Carlos Peña Not An Option For Chivas Guadalajara?
A new club is hoping to be at the summit of Mexican football, with the Liga MX Liguilla final being held in Leon tonight. Unless, of course, Leon manage to defend their crown. Just don't expect Pachuca manager Enrique Meza to make it easy on them. His side is entering the Nou Camp with purpose and an intention to win (h/t to El Universal). "At the end of the match, I'll tell you if a draw was good enough for me," Meza said.
"But I'm not coming here for it," he added.
Cruz Azul's Marco Fabian Being Replaced By Cristian Penilla?
"We've had a great season. It was difficult, but we've made it to the final. Now, we expect our young players to play a great game against an opponent with a lot of experience, who have on their roster four national team players."
Will Pachuca be able to take a step closer to the Liga MX title despite their youthful inexperience? Tell us @SportsWN
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: With Walter Ayovi serving a red card suspension, a search for his replacement remains Enrique Meza's priority. Ayovi's ability to play both a holding role and an attacking role made him an invaluable asset to Pachuca. The most like-for-like choice for Meza is Diego De Buen. The 22-year-old made seven starts for the club this season, scoring one goal.
Leon's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Yarbrough; Hernandez, Ibarra, Marquez, Magallon; Vazquez, Peña; Cardenas, Montes, Arizala; Boselli
Pachuca's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Perez; Arreola, Herrera, Rodriguez, Pizarro; De Buen, Hernandez, Villalpando; Lozano, Valencia, Damm
