Chivas, who depend on themselves to stay in the qualification zone, and Puebla, who are desperate for points to get into the race, will meet this Friday at the Cuauhtémoc Stadium and the match promises to be a thrilling one.

- This will be the fifth time they have faced each other on matchday 13 and Guadalajara has never lost, winning on 3 occasions and drawing on 1.
