Monterrey
- Monterrey are a possession-based team with lots of patience and structure, using their wide players to overload zones and build up through the thirds, but they have increased their tempo since Nicolás Sánchez took over as interim coach in March 2026.
- The Rayados are currently hovering around ninth spot with 14 points and need to beat the San Luis side who currently occupy 11th or 12th place in the mid-table group with 11 points.
- A home victory will keep Monterrey’s hopes alive for the top-eight Liguilla spots and the chance of a quarter-final berth, while San Luis will need to snatch a result if their Liguilla ambitions are to remain on track.
San Luis
- Raúl Chabrand takes charge of the San Luis for the first time after the club sacked Guillermo Abascal in a bid to steady the ship and spark a late-season run.
- San Luis have produced a few results, such as a recent 4-1 home win, but they haven’t been able to put a consistent run together, switching between draws and losses in March 2026.

- Germán Berterame and Uroš Đurđević have both found the net in recent weeks and provide a good mix of mobility and physical strength.
