The Cruz Azul vs Chivas de Guadalajara match will be broadcast live online and on TV as Los Celestes host Los Rojiblancos at the Estadio Azteca this Saturday, January 12, 2019, at 5:00 PM Pacific.
Cruz Azul started off the 2019 Clausura season with a 1-1 draw against Puebla away from home and is now looking for its first win in the new tournament. La Maquina was undefeated at home last season in the regular season with a spectacular mark of eight wins, one draw and no losses.
The Mexico City team now looks to have a similar mark this season and also seeks redemption after losing the 2018 Apertura final to archrivals Club America. Cruz Azul had a busy transfer window signing players like Orbelin Pineda, Yoshimar Yotun and Jonathan Rodriguez, but recently lost midfielder Ivan Marcone to Boca Juniors.
Chivas de Guadalajara is not necessarily seeking a title, but is looking to improve after missing out on the playoffs for three consecutive seasons. Los Rojiblancos had a busy transfer window and started off the new season with a promising 2-0 win against Club Tijuana at home.
Chivas only had one loss on the road last season and were one of the few teams that played better on the road than at home in the Liga MX. Jose Cardozo has a well-balanced squad that can potentially be very good defensively with the likes of Hiram Mier, Jair Pereira and Jesus Molina in the midfield.
