Puebla will welcome Chivas to the Cuauhtemoc Stadium for a Liga MX clash on Friday.
After a poor run of one win in six league games, Puebla have managed to record two wins in their last three games. They will be hoping this is the start of a comeback as they are currently struggling in the 13th spot in the table.
Chivas had a bad run of their own recently when they went six games without a win. They put an end to that run with a 4-1 win over Atlas in their most recent league outing, a game in which Ricardo Marin scored a brace.
