The Cafetaleros de Tapachula vs Tigres UANL match will be live on online stream and TV at 5:00 PM Pacific this Wednesday, August 29, 2018, as Copa MX 2018 action continues at the Estadio Olimpico de Tapachula.
Cafetaleros de Tapachula has been one of the weakest teams in the Ascenso MX currently 13th in Mexico’s second-tier league and is also struggling in the Copa MX. The team from Chiapas is currently last in Group 9 of the competition with just two points and needs to win to survive.
Irving Rubirosa was recently relieved of his duties as the manager of the club and has been replaced by Diego De La Torre. De La Torre is still a current player and will serve as a player/manager something that is very rare to see these days. Tapachula has some former Liga MX players like Alfonso Tamay and Mario Ortiz and did manage to pull off a surprising 0-0 draw against Tigres last time the two teams faced off.
Tigres UANL has been a very disappointing team so far this season with just nine points in the Liga MX and currently with just four points in the Copa MX. However, a win would secure a spot in the knockout stage of the tournament and would extend a two-game undefeated streak.
Ricardo Ferretti has been using an alternate squad for these Copa MX games, but this includes players like Enner Valencia and Eduardo Vargas.
Tapachula vs Tigres UANL Prediction
Cafetaleros de Tapachula will have the home-field advantage, but Tigres UANL does have the much better team. FutnSoccer predicts a 3-0 win for Los Felinos, who are coming off a huge 5-1 win against Atletico San Luis in this competition.
