FC Juarez is one of the teams that has taken a spot in the top 12 positions in the league. They are currently holding on to the last spot in the qualification zones, and any slip-up would see them miss out on the knockout rounds. They would face Atletico de San Luis, the team on their tail.
A win for either team would change the current Liga MX standings. Both teams have the same Liga MX stats: they’ve only won one, drawn three, and lost two of their six games this season.
