Mexico's Liga MX sixth round clash between Cruz Azul and Toluca is today, Saturday, 23rd August. Broadcast details are available.
In the sixth round of the Apertura 2024, Cruz Azul and Toluca are set to lock horns in what promises to be the most attractive match of the round. The highly anticipated encounter will take place this Saturday at Ciudad Universitaria.
Cruz Azul, currently third in the tournament with 11 points, are eager for a win to stay in the fight for the top spots in the classification. Their coach, Nicolás Larcamón, is seeking to win over the celeste fan base, which remains unconvinced by his arrival.
Toluca, on the other hand, are coming off a disappointing loss on penalties to Orlando City in the Leagues Cup quarter-finals. Their coach, Mohamed, will be hoping to guide his team to a much-needed victory. However, Toluca has fewer rest days than Cruz Azul, which could have an impact on the match.
Rodolfo Rotondi, a notable figure in this match, recalls his beginnings at Newell's Old Boys, where his early career contributed to his unbreakable spirit. Rotondi will be a key player for Cruz Azul, who are aiming for their third consecutive win to maintain their unbeaten record in the tournament.
Gonzalo Piovi, a starting centre-back for the celestes, was rumoured to move to Inter Miami, but negotiations fell through, and he will remain with Cruz Azul. Piovi, who was signed by Cruz Azul in Liga MX in 2025, is not eligible to play for Inter Miami due to the transfer falling through and him remaining at Cruz Azul.
The match will start at 21:00 hours and will be broadcast on Canal 5, TUDN, and VIX. The match will close the Liga MX's Saturday activity on August 23.
In their last league match, the current Liga MX champions, Cruz Azul, drew 1-1 with Pumas. This result will not have dampened their spirits, as they are determined to secure a win against Toluca.
The outcome of this match could have a significant impact on the tournament standings, making it a must-watch for football fans across Mexico and beyond.
