Liga MX’s most important stretch has arrived in the Apertura 2022 with 18 teams looking for 12 spots in the finals. With the famous Liguilla in sight, Cruz Azul visits Juarez today at the Olympic Stadium of that city in the Mexican border, trying to establish some momentum for the last weeks of the tournament. Here you will find everything there is to know about this exciting Mexican league game, such as the preview, information, predictions, odds and how to watch or live stream it in the US. You can watch it live on FuboTV (free trial).
Juarez is on the brink of missing the Liguilla and currently holds the last spot for the playoffs. With 12 points in 11 games, the team from the border still controls its own destiny but faces a really tough rival in Matchday 12 of Liga MX’s Apertura 2022.
On the other side, Cruz Azul is living one of its toughest moments in recent years. A few weeks ago, la Maquina was humiliated 7-0 by archrival Club America and that produced the ousting of Diego Aguirre as manager of the club. Now, Raul Gutierrez, the master of Mexican Youth soccer, wants to seize his first great opportunity leading Cruz Azul as strategist in Liga MX.

Juarez vs Cruz Azul: Storylines
Juarez currently holds the last spot in the pursuit to clinch a ticket for the Liguilla. Nevertheless, the team hasn't won a match playing at home in all the Apertura 2022 (4 draws and 1 loss).
Cruz Azul is in a must win scenario with new manager Raul Gutierrez. La Maquina is just one point away of qualification zone and Juarez is a direct rival in the table. A victory for Los Celestes in Juarez would represent an emotional boost after that loss with America. This would be Raul Gutierrez second game after a victory in his debut against Queretaro.
