The Pumas vs Chivas 2013 match will have Pumas host Chivas on Sunday, March 3, 2013 at the Estadio Olimpico Universitario at 10:00 am PST.

Pumas, a special match

Pumas knows that this match is vital in their aspirations to post-season and Chivas is a rival with whom they have history. Pumas is perhaps getting confident due to the results that they have gotten recently, the win over San Luis and the draw in Copa MX with Puebla.

Pumas will count with all of their players available for this match. A Robin Ramirez that scored his first Liga MX goal last week will be confident. Bravo who has always been a pain for Chivas defense and a Cortes that has given us great goals vs el rebaño.

Chivas, with Galindo for the win

Chivas is currently in 8th position in the table just one space below Pumas. They both have the same goals in favor but Pumas has less goals against. One point to stand out is that Chivas will not count with Hector Reynoso, the central defense that has experience and is the leader from the beginning. Also Chaton is still unsure if he will play.

Chivas is seeking the 3 points but their numbers visiting are not in their favor. However, Galindo has brought a team that seemed lost early on, but has started playing in sync and shown a better collective game. Sabah, Marco Fabian and Rafael Marques Lugo (who began his career at Pumas) will be key players for this game.

Pumas vs Chivas Prediction

The Pumas vs Chivas match will be a fast game back and forth. The goalkeepers will have work to do. Neither team will save anything. With those premises established we can expect at times for the game to get stuck. At the end, the Pumas vs Chivas match will end in a draw: 1-1.
