CD Guadalajara host Cruz Azul at Estadio Akron in Zapopan in a Liga MX fixture that carries genuine weight for both clubs as the Clausura season reaches a critical stage.
Chivas come into this game off the back of a 2-2 draw with Cruz Azul in the first leg, a result that keeps the tie alive and gives Guadalajara reason for belief on home soil. Before that draw, they beat Tigres 2-0, a result that demonstrated what this squad is capable of producing when the pressure is on.
Cruz Azul arrive in Zapopan in confident shape. Three wins from their last five Liga MX outings have reinforced their credentials as one of the stronger sides in the division, and their recent record against Chivas adds further weight to their position as the side to beat in this fixture.
The head-to-head record between these two clubs is firmly in Cruz Azul’s favour. They have won three of the last five meetings, including a 2-1 victory in February and a 3-2 win in December 2025, and Chivas have not beaten their opponents in this series in recent memory.
In the Clausura standings, Guadalajara sit second and Cruz Azul are third, meaning this is a direct contest between two clubs separated by a single position. The outcome carries real consequences for both sides.

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:
- Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
- Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don’t support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
