The managers G. Vázquez and M. Vucetich are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the Liga MX league table.

Querétaro form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Liga MX travels is 4 wins, 2 draws and 3 defeats. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Querétaro's last three away games as they have all been lost.
