The Necaxa vs Chivas match will be broadcast on TUDN and Claro Sports YouTube (Free) on Friday, January 17, at 10:05 PM ET / 7:05 PM PT. Taking place at Estadio Victoria, Necaxa, led by Nicolas Larcamon, will aim for their first win in the Clausura 2025, while Chivas, under Oscar Garcia, strive to maintain their positive momentum. Learn how both teams are performing and what to expect in this exciting clash.

How Is Necaxa Performing?

Necaxa, managed by Nicolas Larcamon, began the Clausura 2025 with a 2-1 loss to Pumas. Despite a strong start, including a first-half goal to take the lead, they couldn’t sustain their advantage. Defensive errors and a lack of offensive sharpness in the second half allowed their opponent to stage a comeback. Larcamon must work on tactical balance to address these issues and secure points at home.

In the Apertura 2024, Necaxa faced a challenging tournament with inconsistent performances. While they managed key draws against teams like Atlas and America, they also suffered heavy defeats, such as a 6-2 loss to Pachuca and a 3-0 defeat to Cruz Azul. This context adds pressure on Larcamon to change the narrative and aim for a positive result against Chivas.

  • November 6: Necaxa 1-1 San Luis (Liga MX)
  • November 2: Pachuca 6-2 Necaxa (Liga MX)
  • October 27: Necaxa 1-3 Toluca (Liga MX)

How Is Chivas Performing?

Chivas, now under Oscar Garcia’s leadership, opened their Clausura 2025 campaign with a 1-0 victory over Santos Laguna. They displayed a solid defense and capitalized on a crucial second-half play to secure the three points. However, their offense remains a work in progress, having created few clear opportunities during the game. Garcia will aim to refine his strategy and improve attacking efficiency in this upcoming match.

In the Apertura 2024, Chivas experienced notable highs and lows. They achieved impressive wins, such as a 3-2 triumph over Necaxa and a 2-0 victory against Pachuca, but also suffered painful defeats to Atlas and San Luis. This tournament start offers Garcia a chance to establish a solid foundation for the team to compete in Liga MX and regain their prominence.
