The Puebla vs Chivas Guadalajara Liga MX match will take place this Sunday, February 9, 2014 (10:00 AM Pacific) at the Estadio Cuauhtemoc. Puebla will host Chivas in an attempt to earn their second straight win and inch closer to a playoff seed. Meanwhile, the team from Guadalajara is gaining the urge to win as anything else will begin to amount negative pressure on their campaign.

The team coached by Ruben Omar Romano won last week 1-0 against Veracruz. That win was their first win this Clausura 2014, in which they have also tied 3 and lost 1. On Sunday, Puebla will have a difficult encounter against a solid team like Chivas, where a win will take them to 9 points, and between the top eight teams in the league.

For Chivas, winning on Sunday does not only mean that the team would reach the top eight with 9 points. In fact, February 9, 2013 was the last time the team won on the road, making Sunday their 1 year anniversary. The team coached by Jose Luis Real has been very weak on offense only scoring 4 goals this season, therefore in order to win this Sunday and end that negative streak, faces like Aldo De Nigris and Rafael Marquez Lugo will have to return to top form.
