Cruz Azul vs Necaxa: Final regular season showdown!

Cruz Azul is set to host Necaxa at Estadio Cuauhtémoc on Monday, marking the conclusion of the Liga MX Torneo Clausura regular season. This crucial match precedes the tournament's final phase.

Although Cruz Azul has secured a quarterfinal spot, they are vying for third place. Sitting fourth with 30 points, a win against Necaxa would move them above third-placed Pachuca, who have completed all their matches.

However, La Máquina enters this game with a recent slump, having won only once in their last 10 competitions and remaining winless in their last five league fixtures. They will aim to improve their campaign from the quarterfinals onwards.
