Chivas vs Club Tijuana: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

Chivas vs Club Tijuana predicted formations

Chivas host Club Tijuana at Estadio Akron on Saturday, August 22 (7:07 PM ET / 6:07 PM CT / 4:07 PM PT).

There are no fresh fitness or suspension concerns flagged for either side, so Chivas can call on Roberto Alvarado, who has 2 goals from 12 shots this season, alongside Brian Gutierrez and Luis Romo supplying the creative work in midfield. Club Tijuana will look to Gilberto Mora and Mourad El Ghezouani, both on 2 goals apiece, to carry the attacking threat into Estadio Akron.

This one has the look of a tight, low-scoring affair. Chivas’ 1-0 win over FC Juarez and 0-2 loss to Toluca either side of a draw at Puebla point to a home side capable of grinding out a result in front of their own fans, while Club Tijuana’s 0-0 draw at Atletico San Luis shows they can go quiet on the road. Expect fine margins, with Alvarado’s movement in behind the difference-maker in a 1-0 Chivas win.
