Queretaroand Toluca lock horns with each other in the first round of the Clausara stage in the Liga MX on Friday at the Estadio La Corregidora.
Queretaro enter the contest on the back of a toothless stalemate against Monterrey as they finished the first phase in the bottom half of the Apertura table. With just 19 points from 17 games, the home side will look to kick-off the new phase on the front foot and brush aside their woes of the past.
Toluca, on the other hand, faced a narrow defeat against Mazatlan in their last Apertura game. Jefferson Intriago scored the solitary goal of the game as Toluca were handed their sixth defeat as they also look to start the second phase on a high.
