This Sunday, November 4, 2018, (10:00 AM Pacific) Pumas UNAM will host Cruz Azul at the Estadio Olimpico Universitario in Week 15 of the Liga MX 2018 Apertura. The game is set to be one of the best games in the Liga MX this weekend as it will be between two of the best teams this season, here are what the lineups may look like for both teams.
Diego Rosales made his Liga MX debut for Pumas UNAM last week against Xolos as Alan Mozo was not available due to a suspension. Mozo is now set to come back and David Patino will likely stick with his 4-4-2 formation and this lineup: Alfredo Saldivar, Alan Mozo, Alejandro Arribas, Luis Quintana, Alan Mendoza, Martin Rodriguez, Ignacio Malcorra, Andres Iniestra, Pablo Barrera, Felipe Mora, Carlos Gonzalez.

Patino has not altered his starting XI much recently and it has worked for him with two wins from Pumas’ last three league games.
Cruz Azul won the final of the Copa MX against Monterrey earlier in the week, but Pedro Caixinha is likely to make some adjustments to the lineup that was used against Rayados. The Portuguese manager will likely use a similar XI that was used against Club America in Week 14 in a 4-2-3-1 formation.
Here is what La Maquina’s starting lineup may look like: Jesus Corona, Jose Maduena, Pablo Aguilar, Julio Cesar Dominguez, Adrian Aldrete, Ivan Marcone, Rafael Baca, Roberto Alvarado, Elias Hernandez, Edgar Mendez, Martin Cauteruccio.
Javier Salas could get the start instead of Rafael Baca in the midfield, but that is the only likely change that Pedro Caixinha may make to this predicted lineup.
