What They're Saying
Chivas Guadalajara manager Jose Manuel de la Torre (via Informador): "If we score a goal, they have the pressure of having to score one. We're always going to try and score and this time [the first leg] was no exception. They didn't have more chances than we did. The 0-0 is justified because of the events that took place on the pitch. The team insisted. In the end, we weren't able to achieve our goal."
Atlas manager Tomas Boy (via Informador): "The game was very hard fought, with a lot of intensity, but also low in quality. That's how the circumstances dictated the match. Anything is possible. That's how Chivas plays at home or away. Chivas were intense, they fought for the ball. My team did too and sometimes that drops the quality in football."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Marco Fabian's quality must shine bright for Chivas to advance to the semifinals. In 15 league appearances, the 25-year-old has four goals and four assists.
Chivas Guadalajara's Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Michel; Ponce, Salcedo, Pereira, Lopez; Castro, Enriquez; Fabian, Fierro, Arce; Bravo
Atlas' Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Vilar; Perez, Venegas, Kannemann, Valenzuela; Rodriguez, Millar, Medina; Caballero, Gonzalez, Alvarez
