Tonight at 7:00 PM, Club Puebla will host Tijuana’s Xolos at the Estadio Cuauhtémoc in a match that is part of the 13th round of the Liga MX Apertura 2025 tournament.
This encounter represents another opportunity for the team, coached by Argentine Hernán Cristante, to break free from a significant crisis that has left them languishing at the bottom of the league standings.
Puebla finds itself in a challenging situation, having gone nine matches without a victory and managing just five points, which places them in last position in the championship. Their struggles extend beyond the standings, as they are also at risk in the relegation table, adding pressure on both the players and the coaching staff.
Tonight’s match will see Puebla return to the Cuauhtémoc after suffering a defeat on September 27 against Chivas, where they faced their home fans’ disappointment. Following that, in round 12, the team had a break due to the FIFA international window, giving them two weeks to regroup and focus on improving their performance.
Cristante is hopeful that this break allowed them to address issues within the squad and enhance their overall play. For this match, fans can expect the return of players Luis Gabriel Rey, Owen González, and Raúl Castillo, who were absent in the previous game, bringing a renewed sense of energy to the team as they aim for a much-needed victory.
