Match Preview
Cruz Azul has been solid in the Liga MX, currently with six points but has been underperforming in the Copa MX, currently with only two points. La Maquina had 1-1 draws against Tigres UANL and Zacatepec to get those two points and will be looking for the three points from this match. Manager Paco Jemez does seem to be heavily invested in this cup competition as he has featured players like Adrian Aldrete, Rafael Baca, Gabriel Penalba, Edgar Mendez and Felipe Mora. A formidable starting 11 is expected from Jemez for this game and Cruz Azul should get the three points playing against a much weaker side at home.
Zacatepec has been one of the best teams in the Ascenso MX and is currently exceeding expectations massively in the Copa MX. Los Caneros pulled off an impressive 1-1 draw against Cruz Azul in week 1 and followed that up with a shocking 2-1 win against Tigres UANL. Both results were at home and now the Ascenso MX team will need to travel to the Estadio Azul and Estadio Universitario to finish off the matches in the group stage of the competition.
Manager Marcelo Michel Leano is Zacatepec’s strongest component by far as he has managed to get the results with an average squad. This game should a very intriguing game at the Estadio Azul and the showdown between Leano and Paco Jemez should be very intense and exciting.
