The season is still fairly new and the Liga MX table has to be read with caution. So far Cruz Azul find themselves in 5th position and Juárez are placed 10th.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
It's quite the trip for Juárez when visiting Cruz Azul as the cities are 1800 kilometers apart.

Juárez form and stats
Juárez are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Liga MX, having played 2 games and collected 2 points (0 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses). Two points from the last two away games for Juárez, which the math geniuses among you will translate to two draws.
