How to Watch Tigres UANL vs Necaxa: Stream Liga MX Live, TV Channel

Tigres UANL hosts Necaxa on Friday hoping to solidify a top-six finish as the end of the Liga MX Apertura moves within sight

Just five matchdays remain in the Apertura phase of the Liga MX season as Tigres UANL hosts Necaxa on Friday hoping to tie down a top-six finish and advance direct to the play-off stage of the competition. Los Rayos are in a far more dire situation, however, after amassing only nine points from 12 games so far this term, with Puebla the only team in the division currently ranked lower. Tigres is undefeated in its last nine encounters with Fernando Gago’s side, though the previous two meetings between these teams have each ended in draws as Necaxa clings onto the hope of clinching a place in the play-in round.

Despite sitting 17th and seven places off the play-in spots, Necaxa has room to dream considering it only needs four points to summit that climb.

However, a lack of goals has been a constant concern for the club this campaign, having managed to score more than one goal in a game just once this league season.

Necaxa fell at home to Pachuca in its last outing after Luis Quinones scored the only goal of the game, keeping Los Rayos fixed just above the bottom of the table:

It’s bad news for Gago’s side that Tigres just so happens to boast the best defense in the land, having leaked just 10 goals in 12 outings this term.

Friday’s showdown will present a showdown between two compatriots who will have crossed paths in the past, though Guido Pizarro finds himself in a far rosier position at present.
