The Clásico Tapatío is here! The only change for coach Matias Almeyda from last week is a forced one. Chivas will have to do without Carlos Salcido after the veteran midfielder picked up an injury last week. In Salcido’s place will be youngster Michael Perez, who did a good job in Chivas’ victory over Santos Laguna. Meanwhile, this could be Carlos Salcedo’s last game with Chivas after it was reported he would complete a 7 million dollar move to Serie A outfit Fiorentina.
For Atlas, Jose Guadalupe Cruz fields a very similar team to the one he has been playing with in the last few weeks.
