Cimarrones de Sonora and Celaya have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Liga Ascenso.

Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!

Celaya have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 1600 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
