What They're Saying
Pumas UNAM manager Guillermo Vázquez (via Esto): "I'm somewhat satisfied, but not completely because the team played a good first half [against Chivas Guadalajara]. We generated many chances on goal, but we let clear opportunities escape. We have to be more accurate and keep things simple, but winning always gives you confidence."
Toluca manager Jose Cardozo (via Esto): "Yes, you can say it was a football accident [to lose in the Copa MX] because it is a scandalous score [6-1], but we know what we are capable of."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Toluca's Richard Ortiz was influential in the club's 3-0 victory over Chiapas in Week 2. The 24-year-old finished with two goals in his first start of the Clausura campaign.
Pumas UNAM's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Saldivar; Galland, Alcoba, Verón, Fuentes; Torales, Ramis, Granados; Sosa, Herrera, Lopez
