Two clubs chasing the Clausura Liga MX title will do battle today in a league match between Tijuana and Atlas. The first-division clash scheduled for 10:30 p.m. ET will be held at the Estadio Caliente in Tijuana and can be live streamed here free. Additional TV coverage can be found on ESPN Deportes.
What They're Saying
Tijuana manager Daniel Guzman (via Esto): "We've made various errors and our opponents have taken advantage, but I still believe in our attacking football. We'll continue with our philosophy."
Atlas forward Luis Caballero (via Esto): "Last season, we qualified for the playoffs in first place and were eliminated in the quarterfinals. I think your position in the table does not matter. What matters is qualifying, being in the playoffs and demonstrating you want to be champion."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Carlos Ochoa has been less than effective for Atlas this campaign. In 13 appearances, the 37-year-old has just one goal. He'll look to return to form on Friday.
Tijuana's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Saucedo; Garza, Gandolfi, Chavez, Nunez; Hauche, Arango, Guemez, Ruiz; Martin, Moreno
Atlas' Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Villar, Castillo, Kannemann, Perez, Avendano; Hernandez, Gonzalez, Rodriguez, Alvarez; Barragan, Ochoa
