The Copa MX final between Monterrey and Cruz Azul will be broadcast live online and on TV as Los Rayados host Los Celestes at the Estadio BBVA Bancomer this Wednesday, October 31, 2018, at 7:36 PM Pacific.
Monterrey defeated Zacatepec 4-2 in the round of 16, Queretaro 1-0 in the quarterfinals and Pachuca on penalties in the semifinals to get to the final of this competition. Rayados are currently sixth place in the Liga MX and are coming off a 1-0 loss against Santos Laguna, but will try and bounce back in this match. Diego Alonso has a really talented roster with players like Aviles Hurtado and Rodolfo Pizarro, but may be missing some key players like Jonathan Gonzalez and Jonathan Urretaviscaya due to injuries. Monterrey will have the massive home-field advantage in this match, but it may not mean much as the team has struggled significantly in important home games.
Cruz Azul is currently in third place with 27 points, but is now winless in their last two games and is also looking to bounce back like Monterrey. La Maquina defeated Xolos in the round of 16, FC Juarez in the quarterfinals and Leon on penalties in the semifinals to reach this important fixture. Cruz Azul is riddled with talent and has a very well-balanced team that should be able to do well even away from home. Los Cementeros defeated Monterrey 2-1 at the Estadio Azteca in Week 12 of the Liga MX and will be looking to repeat history on Wednesday night.
