Chivas de Guadalajara have only won twice in Liga MX this season. In nine matches... In 12 matches this season, including the League Cup, Chivas have only won three. However, starting in Matchday 8, when they surprised the betting community by beating América in the derby in the capital with goals from González and Alvarado, Chivas's on-field performance had been on the rise. Recently, after their victory in the derby, they were better than Tigres at the Estadio Akron in a match that, however, ended in a 0-0 draw.

Then, Chivas's good form was cut short by the current dominance of Mexican soccer, Toluca. The reigning champions beat Chivas 3-0 away; it was a match where Toluca launched a pair of lethal counterattacks in which Chivas looked poorly positioned. Furthermore, after conceding Toluca's first goal in this fashion through striker Paulinho, Chivas conceded another goal from Gallardo just three minutes later. Milito, Chivas' coach, acknowledged Toluca's strong approach and execution. The coach of the reigning champions spoke about Chivas, saying they were able to beat a team that was on the rise.

Chivas then prepares for its third consecutive match at the Akron Stadium, where they will host Necaxa, a team from Aguascalientes. Necaxa was able to break a very negative streak of six Liga MX matches without a win, beating Puebla 1-0 with an own goal.
