Queretaro and Club Tijuana get underway in the new Mexican Liga MX campaign when they square off at the Estadio Corregidora on Saturday. Mauro Gerk’s men are unbeaten in seven consecutive games against the visitors since 2021 and will be looking to extend this impressive three-year run.
Queretaro will kick off the new Mexican top flight hoping to improve on their performance from last season, as they finished 14th in the Apertura standings, missing out on the playoffs.
Gerk’s side enjoyed a more improved second half of the season as they narrowly finished 10th in the Clausura to secure their spot in the play-in.
However, Queretaro failed to reach the playoffs as they fell to a penalty-shootout loss against Club Necaxa in the play-in on May 3.
Club Tijuana, on the other hand, endured a forgettable 2023-24 campaign as they failed to reach the playoffs in both the Apertura and Clausura.
After finishing 14th in the Apertura campaign, Los Xolos managed just two wins in the second half of the season to end in 16th place in the Clausura, only above Puebla and Atlas.
Following their poor performance last season, Tijuana have parted ways with head coach Miguel Herrera, with former Athletico Paranaense boss Juan Carlos Osorio taking over the reins.
