Tijuana seek revenge as Tigres open Apertura campaign
Club Tijuana host Tigres UANL in an Apertura opener that pits the hosts' late-season momentum against a visiting side looking to bounce back from recent cup heartbreak.
Club Tijuana enter the new campaign on a high, having finished the previous season unbeaten in their final five matches. Their last competitive defeat dates back to March, and they will be eager to avenge a 5-3 aggregate loss to Tigres in the recent play-in quarter-finals. The Xolos are aiming to re-establish themselves as title contenders for the first time since their 2012 Apertura triumph.
Tigres UANL arrive at Estadio Caliente after a turbulent finish to the previous cycle. They were recently eliminated from cup competition following a penalty shootout loss to Toluca and suffered a 2-0 defeat to Guadalajara in their final league outing. Despite their status as perennial heavyweights, the visitors have struggled for defensive solidity, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last three matches.
