Mexico will face Bahrain in their opening match of the 2019 Toulon Tournament and will have eyes on the top prize after they finished runners-up to England last year.
Group C will be the last of this year's pools to get under way in France, and Mexico go up against The Red in their opening match of the competition hoping to get off to a winning start.
The timing of the 2019 FIFA Under-20 World Cup in Poland means El Tri are one of numerous teams that have seen their squads weakened, however.
Mexico will still be favourites to beat Asian representatives Bahrain, but their first match of the competition may not be the walkover one might expect of the 2018 silver medallists.
