The visiting team is obliged to score goals and they need Óscar Villa to have an inspired afternoon to close the gap early and then be able to think about achieving the great feat.

As he has done throughout the season, Armando González appeared in the first leg, scoring the third goal and hopes to continue his scoring form to secure a place in the semifinals as soon as possible.

The Cimarrones de Sonora were already mentally prepared to do the feat by three goals, but the setback in their favor due to the sanctioning of the rival has fallen in their favor and now they will have to be smart to keep that advantage; now they just need to win or tie by any score.

Although they had won the first leg by a score of 3-1 on the field, an improper alignment incurred by Alebrijes de Oaxaca cost them dearly and the Liga de Expansión MX decided to sanction them and give them a 1-0 defeat on the table, which is why they will have to win by any score at home to advance to the semifinals.

The Alebrijes vs Cimarrones Sonora match will be played at the ITO Stadium, in Oaxaca, Mexico. The kick-off is scheduled at 6:00 pm ET.
