The Cimarrones de Sonora vs Chivas Copa MX match will be broadcast live online and on TV as El Cornudo hosts Los Rojiblancos at the Estadio Heroe de Nacozari this Tuesday, January 8, 2019, at 7:00 PM Pacific.
Cimarrones de Sonora had a horrendous start to the Ascenso MX 2019 Clausura season, falling 5-1 to Atlante in Week 1. The team from Hermosillo finished fourth in the Asenso MX last season and should be able to do better than what it showed in the opening week of the new season.
Sonora has the distinction of being the only team in the Ascenso MX with a full Mexican squad and will be playing the only Liga MX team with a full Mexican roster. Cimarrones’ roster is not comparable to Chivas’, but the home-field advantage can play a role in this clash.
Chivas de Guadalajara had a solid start to the new season with a 2-0 win against Club Tijuana at home and will look to continue its good form. Los Rojiblancos have improved their squad from last season by signing players like Alexis Vega, Hiram Mier and Jesus Molina and also have the depth to compete in the Copa MX.
Luis Madrigal, Jesus “Chapito” Sanchez, “Chofis” Lopez and Walter Gael Sandoval are just some of the players that could play in this match. Madrigal could be especially interesting as he was a consistent goalscorer with Oaxaca and Zacatecas in the Asenso MX.
Sonora vs Chivas Prediction
FutnSoccer predicts a 3-1 win for “Pepe” Cardozo’s men, Chivas clearly has the better team and should be able to win by a sizeable margin.
