Liga MX Still A Possibility For Liga MX
For Monterrey, 2016 is all about a return to the Liguilla. Los Rayados missed out on the playoffs last year. A Week 1 victory over Pumas UNAM went a long way in ensuring history doesn't repeat itself.

What They're Saying
Puebla manager Pablo Marini (via Esto): "We have to be tough to beat at home because we know that we're going to face a good team that's motivated. [Monterrey] won [in Week 1] and they have quality players. If we maintain our form and take advantage of the chances we create, we'll be in position to earn the three points."
Monterrey midfielder Edwin Cardona (via Esto): "It's important to win like that, without conceding a goal. It doesn't matter if you win 5, 6-0 or 1-0. You get three points either way. The most important thing is to win and remain consistent. We know every game is different, but we have to find our focus."
