What They're Saying
Cruz Azul manager Luis Fernando Tena (via Esto): "We are happy with the good start with a good production of points. We contemplated getting six of the first nine points, but we have seven.
Puebla manager Jose Guadalupe Cruz (via Esto): "The draw for us tastes like victory and it comes good because of the string of complicated games ahead."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Puebla's Matias Alustiza has been an integral part of the team's early season success since joining from Pachuca. Last season, 30-year-old finished with five goals and four chances created. He'll look to continue riding that form on Saturday.
Puebla's Projected Lineup (3-4-1-2): Cota; Erpen, Romero, Orozco; Esqueda, Noriega, Santos, Torres; Pajoy, Alustiza; Rey
Cruz Azul's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Corona; Pinto, Dominguez, Rodriguez, Zuniga; Rojas, Baca, Torrado, Baez; Formica, Junior
