Pumas and Pachuca face each other in the return of the last season’s quarterfinal matchup. Both Pumas and Pachuca are far from last season’s form, as both are battling to even get to the repechaje. Pumas will return from the international break to host a 12:00 PM match in Ciudad Universitario hoping to get an advantage as they try to improve from their struggles in the final third of the season. Pachuca meanwhile hope to continue the three game winning streak that moved them from last place to twelfth, just inside the repechaje zone.
Pumas has had a disappointing season so far.
