What They're Saying

Tijuana goalkeeper Cirilo Saucedo (via Esto): "[We still have] many goals to accomplish. One should not focus on the goal, focus on the day-to-day life instead. If not, you won't enjoy things. Today, we have many objectives. First, making the playoffs and winning the championship by any means."

Pachuca winger Jurgen Damm (via Esto): "The truth is I'm happy. I know I have to continue with good performances with the team."

Tactical Preview

Player to Watch: Damm has been stellar on the left in consecutive campaigns. Last season, the 22-year-old created 27 total chances in 22 appearances. He'll look to do more of the same in Tijuana on Friday.

Tijuana's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Saucedo; Garza, Gandolfi, Chavez, Ortiz; Hauche, Arango, Guemez, Ruiz; Moreno, Jesus

Pachuca's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Perez; Ayoví, Mosquera, Herrera, Pizarro; De Buen, Gutierrez; Lozano, Sornoza, Damm; Nahuelpan
