Mauro Quiroga | The Tuzos' reinforcement already started with a goal against Bravos. The Argentinean may be the striker that Pachuca was so looking forward to after Franco Jara's departure. His talent and speed may be key to increasing his goalscoring share. 

 

Luis Montes | La Fiera's strikers needs balls into the area and the midfield has been essential to go forward. Montes is the leader of the midfield and the team. He is the key for his teammates to look for the rival target.

Ustari, Catalan, Cabral, Murillo, Guzman, Aguirre, Sosa, Chavez, Ibarra, Sanchez y Quiroga.

 

R. Cota, G. Buron, W. Tesillo, A. Mosquera, O. Rodriguez, J. Rodriguez, F. Gonzalez, J. Godinez, J. Ramirez, V. Davila y N. Sosa.

The central referee of this Leon vs Pachuca will be Jorge Isaac Rojas; Jose de Jesus Rojas, first line; Leonardo Castillo, second line; Erik Yair Miranda, fourth assistant. 

Mauro Quiroga (Tuzos reinforcement for this tournament) got off on the right foot by rescuing a last minute tie in round 1 against Juarez, however, they need to add up to three if they want to be protagonists again in the Liga MX. The blue and white team will not be able to count on Oscar Murillo, who was expelled for a double yellow card, so there is doubt about the player who will take his place for this match. 

Leon was champion with an almost perfect step in the Guard1anes 2020. The emerald team was the best local team with 7 wins and 1 draw at Nou Camp Stadium; it was also the most winning team as a visitor with 5 wins, 1 loss and 3 draws.
