The 2026 Apertura gets underway on Friday night as Atletico San Luis host Cruz Azul at Estadio Libertad Financiera.
Cruz Azul are among the leading contenders for the title after finishing third in last season's Clausura table and then going all the way in the playoffs to scoop the championship. With the likes of José Paradela and Gabriel Fernández in their ranks, Cruz are sure to be a tough matchup for any side this seaosn, so it is no surprise to see that bookies have made them strong favorites to start their campaign with a victory.
After finishing 14th in the 2026 Clausura, expectations are relatively low for Atletico San Luis heading into the Apertura. Consistency was the big issue for San Luis, and they failed to win back-to-back games at any point in the season. Finding a solution to the huge issue is essential if they are to force their way into postseason contention this time around.

Our Atletico San Luis vs CF Cruz Azul Prediction
This is a pretty lop-sided looking curtain raiser to the Apertura season, so we are expecting Cruz Azul to make short work of their hosts on Friday night.
Finding the net was a big problem for San Luis last season, and given the visitors' excellent defence, we cannot see the home fans having too much to shout about.
Cruz Azul games aren't typically high scoring, so we are backing the road team to win this one either 1-0 or 2-0.
Our prediction for Atletico San Luis va Cruz Azul is: Cruz Azul to win and under 2.5 goals
