August 24th features a match where Monterrey and Chivas will play a match in Zapopan in a clash of the Liga MX. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 21 degrees, a perfect day for football. Chivas sits at 13th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 4-0 shutout win against Necaxa. Angel Zaldívar struck first for Chivas in the 30th minute, then Roberto Alvarado added another in the 33rd minute In the end, Necaxa was frustrated by Chivas’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Chivas ended the match with the shutout victory. Chivas looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 2 of their last 10, while in their last match, Monterrey recorded a 1-1 draw against Toluca. Leonardo Fernández struck first for Toluca in the 27th minute on a feed from Jean Meneses, then in the 71st minute, Maximiliano Eduardo Meza sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Rodrigo Aguirre earning them at least the one point. With 21 points in their last 10 matches Monterrey should be reasonably happy with their performance.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Monterrey won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Monterrey is fortunate enough to have Gonzalez Gonzalez in top form. In the last five matches the midfielder has scored four goals. Angel Zaldívar has been the most prolific scorer on Chivas in the last 5 matches with 3 goals.
