The new addition to the team is the inclusion of Nicolás "Diente" López in place of the suspended Luis Quiñones, who was sent off in Tigres' last match against Bravos, where they managed to obtain a tight win on the road.

For this match, Miguel Herrera's team had to make changes due to Quiñones' red card, although the good news is that André-Pierre Gignac has started off on fire and has accumulated three goals. However, it was Quiñones' substitute, Nicolas Lopez, who scored the goal that gave Tigres the lead, and after Queretaro equalized before halftime, Lopez again showed his quality and provided an assist to give Tigres the lead.

“El Diente” López scored with a powerful left footed shot from close range to the top left corner to give Tigres the lead after 19 minutes. He was assisted by a great low cross by Raymundo Fulgencio from the wing.

This could jeopardize Quiñones' place in the starting lineup, as Lopez is showing a high level of play in the match against Queretaro. In addition, Miguel Herrera also gave Rafael Carioca the starting lineup. This is because Juan Pablo Vigón did not train today due to a hamstring problem in his right leg, which is why Miguel Herrera rested him.

Tigres squad against Queretaro

Tigres started the match with Nahuel Guzmán in goal, Javier Aquino, Igor Lichnovsky, Diego Reyes and Jesús Ángulo in defense; Guido Pizarro, Rafael Carioca, Sebastián Córdova and Raymundo Fulgencio in the midfield; Nicolás "Diente" López and André-Pierre Gignac in attack.
