The Pumas UNAM vs Tampico Madero game will be broadcast on TV as Los Capitalinos host La Jaiba Brava at the Estadio Olimpico Universitario this Tuesday, September 4, 2018, at 7:00 PM Pacific.
Pumas UNAM is off to a solid start in the Liga MX 2018 Apertura and recently broke a four-game winless streak by defeating Leon 2-1 in Week 8. Los Felinos are not doing great in the Copa MX with just three points from three games, but still have a chance at making the knockout stage. Of course, Pumas must win this game and will still have to rely on other results in the competition for this to be possible.
David Patino has been using an alternate squad in this tournament, but may use some of his key players with no Liga MX action on the weekend. Some of the players to watch out for on the Mexico City team include Matias Alustiza, Ignacio Malcorra and Juan Manuel Iturbe.
Tampico Madero is on the same boat as Pumas UNAM as it needs to win this game and wait on other results to know if it has qualified to the Copa MX round of 16. La Jaiba Brava is not doing great in the Ascenso MX, currently in 10th place, but is coming off an impressive 3-1 win against Necaxa in this cup competition.
Eduardo Fentanes has a very intriguing squad that includes some former Liga MX players like Mexican striker Javier Orozco, who scored two goals against Necaxa in Week 4 of the tournament.
