Puebla Preview
Puebla experienced a bitter debut against the reigning Mexican soccer champion, Pachuca. They lost by a crushing score of 5-1. In addition to losing that game, the fact that the team conceded that many goals made them the worst team of the campaign so far.
This seemed to be a deja vu based on how the team finished the Apertura 2022, when in the quarterfinals, they lost to América by a total score of 11-2 (1-6 in the first leg and 5-1 in the second leg). Still, the team has time to recover, and in order to do so, it will have to take advantage of their locality in this match.
Probable lineup (5-3-2):Antony Silva; Ivo Vázquez, Emanuel Gularte, Diego De Buen, Gastón Silva, Emilio Martínez; Pablo Parra, Raúl Castillo, Federico Macuello; Martín Barragán, Guillermo Martínez.
Queretaro Preview
The Gallos Blancos of Querétaro draw against Club América 0-0 on their visit to the Azteca Stadium. The level of the opponent they faced makes the point they obtained from the draw worth it. With this result, they will momentarily be among the mid-table teams.
In fact, aprt from seeking to enter the Liguilla and subsequently try to become champion, Queretaro must focus on adding points to move out of last place in the overall standings. If they remain in that position, they would have to pay the debt of 80 million pesos. The team urgently needs to attain these three points.
Probable lineup (4-4-2): Gil Alcalá; José Madueña, Kevin Balanta, Rafael Fernández, Gabriel Rojas; Rodrigo López, Christian Rivera, Jorge Hernández, Pablo Barrera; José Zúñiga, Ángel Sepúlveda.
