Liga MX is just two matchdays away from the playoffs, so the remaining games are expected to be the season's most spectacular, as there’s little difference between the top 5 teams in the standings. That said, even though Cruz Azul is tied with Guadalajara and América at 29 points, the team will face a tough game against Tigres UANL this Saturday night at Universitario Stadium.
In this regard, even though Tigres UANL has been one of the biggest disappointments of the Apertura 2026 season, it is still one of the toughest teams to face at home in the league. However, expectations aren’t high for Tigres to deliver a brilliant performance this Saturday, as fans and even the players haven’t shown much engagement with Víctor Manuel Vucetich’s management.
Meanwhile, Cruz Azul has already clinched a playoff spot; however, the last two regular-season games will demand positive results to avoid dropping out of the top 4 in the standings. With that in mind, the team is expected to improve its defense, as it has conceded at least one goal in four of its last five games. Furthermore, it will be important for Joel Huiqui’s team to avoid injuries to key players like Andrés Montaño, José Paradela, and Erik Lira before the playoffs start.
