Two clubs chasing the Apertura Liga MX title will do battle today in a league match between Puebla and Tigres UANL. The first-division clash scheduled for 6 p.m. ET will be held at the Estadio Cuauhtemoc in Puebla and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on ESPN Deportes.

Week 4 didn't go according to plan for Tigres. A visit to the Estadio Azteca ended in a 2-0 undressing at the hands of Club America, the only unblemished team remaining in Liga MX. According to manager Ricardo Ferretti, the loss cannot be attributed to one single player. All parties involved were sponsible for the club's first defeat of the tournament.

"Everyone is responsible for today's defeat," Ferretti said (via Medio Tiempo). "It's not Tito Villa's fault, nor this guy, nor the other. It's everyones. We are aware that we need to keep working. [Losing] is not ideal, but we're aware it exists. We're not going to dwell on it."

"I don't think Villa was responsible for the loss," he added after his star striker missed his opportunities. "It's all of us [who are responsible]."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: With Michael Orozco forced to miss today's encounter with a red card suspension, Puebla must turn to Edgar Mejia to anchor the central defense. The 26-year-old stepped in against Cruz Azul to perform amicably, clearing two balls in his defensive third.

Puebla's Projected Lineup (5-3-2): Cota; Rivera, Rojas, Lorona, Mejia, Romero; Noriega, Pajoy, Torres; Santos, Cosme

Tigres UANL's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Guzman; Juninho, Ayala, Torres, Estrada; Rios, Torres, Pizarro; Ruben, Burbano, Villa
