Competition: Mexico Liga MX
Date: Sun 22.September
Match begins: 00:00 (UTC)
Venue: Estadio Hidalgo (30000 seats)

An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 15th and the visitors in 14th place.

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

This stadium uses grass, unlike Tijuana's home stadium. The visitors last 36 games on grass have ended in 6 wins, 7 draws and 23 losses. It's quite the trip for Tijuana when visiting Pachuca as the cities are 2700 kilometers apart.
