Chivas travel with their own key men in place \u2014 Roberto Alvarado, who has 3 goals and 12 chances created from 450 minutes, should lead the line alongside Ricardo Marin, with Brian Gutierrez and Luis Romo shaping the game through midfield.<\/p>\n<p>Pachuca&#8217;s form (W L L L) has been shaky \u2014 defeats at home to Club Puebla and Queretaro FC, plus a loss away at Club Leon, with only a win at Pumas UNAM to show for it \u2014 but a home game at Estadio Hidalgo against a Chivas side who&#8217;ve shipped goals even while scoring plenty of their own should stay tighter than that stretch suggests. Chivas&#8217;s own form (L W D W W) has trended the right way, capped by a 5-2 win over Club Tijuana, but that game also showed how open they can be at the back, which suits a Pachuca side built around a single reliable finisher.<\/p>\n<p>US viewers can watch Pachuca vs Chivas on ViX, TUDN or Fox.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n.sq-bpg{--lime:#a8e039;--glow:#c8f24c;--tx:#f4f8f1;--mut:rgba(244,248,241,.62);--line:rgba(255,255,255,.10);--gold:#F7B500;--b365:#ffdd00;position:relative;overflow:hidden;isolation:isolate;font-family:'Bricolage Grotesque',system-ui,-apple-system,Segoe UI,Roboto,sans-serif;color:var(--tx);max-width:960px;margin:12px auto 30px;border-radius:18px;background:radial-gradient(70% 90% at 18% 0%,rgba(168,224,57,.20) 0%,rgba(168,224,57,0) 60%),linear-gradient(135deg,#0e3f29 0%,#0a2c1f 60%,#08251a 100%);box-shadow:0 18px 44px rgba(10,44,31,.32)}\n.sq-bpg *{box-sizing:border-box}\n.sq-bpg::before{content:'';position:absolute;inset:0;z-index:0;pointer-events:none;background-image:url(\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20preserveAspectRatio%3D%22xMidYMid%20slice%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%203000%203000%22%3E%3Cdefs%3E%3Cpattern%20id%3D%22a%22%20width%3D%2278%22%20height%3D%22175.5%22%20x%3D%220%22%20y%3D%220%22%20patternTransform%3D%22rotate%28-45%29%22%20patternUnits%3D%22userSpaceOnUse%22%3E%3Cpath%20fill%3D%22%2303261a%22%20d%3D%22m-38.22%20157.05-.78-78%2078-.78c.45%2043.12-34.12%2078.33-77.22%2078.78%22%2F%3E%3Cpath%20fill%3D%22%2303261a%22%20d%3D%22M77.22%200%2078%2081.6l-78%20.78C-.45%2035.67%2034.12.45%2077.22%200%22%2F%3E%3Cpath%20fill%3D%22%2303261a%22%20d%3D%22m37.78%20158.05-.78-78%2078-.78c.45%2043.12-34.12%2078.33-77.22%2078.78%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fpattern%3E%3C%2Fdefs%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%22100%25%22%20height%3D%22100%25%22%20fill%3D%22url%28%23a%29%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\");background-position:top left;background-size:380px 380px;opacity:.4}\n.sq-bpg__r{position:absolute;width:0;height:0;opacity:0;pointer-events:none}\n.sq-bpg__wrap{position:relative;z-index:1;padding:26px 30px 24px}\n.sq-bpg__tag{display:inline-flex;align-items:center;gap:9px;border:1.5px solid rgba(168,224,57,.55);border-radius:999px;padding:7px 16px;color:var(--lime);font-weight:800;font-size:12px;letter-spacing:2.4px;text-transform:uppercase;background:rgba(10,44,31,.4)}\n.sq-bpg__tag::before{content:'';width:8px;height:8px;border-radius:50%;background:var(--lime);box-shadow:0 0 10px 1px var(--glow)}\n.sq-bpg__ttl{font-size:26px;font-weight:800;letter-spacing:-.3px;line-height:1.12;margin:0;color:var(--tx)}\n.sq-bpg__sub{margin:8px 0 0;font-size:14.5px;line-height:1.5;color:var(--mut);max-width:70ch}\n.sq-bpg__perf{display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;align-items:center;gap:9px;margin-top:18px;padding-top:16px;border-top:1px solid var(--line)}\n.sq-bpg__perf-h{font-size:11px;font-weight:800;letter-spacing:1.4px;text-transform:uppercase;color:var(--lime)}\n.sq-bpg__chip{font-size:12.5px;color:var(--mut);background:rgba(255,255,255,.05);border:1px solid var(--line);border-radius:999px;padding:4px 11px}\n.sq-bpg__chip b{color:var(--tx)}\n.sq-bpg__chip--big{background:var(--lime);color:#08251a;border-color:var(--lime)}\n.sq-bpg__chip--big b{color:#08251a}\n.sq-bpg__siglink{margin-left:auto;font-size:13px;font-weight:700;color:var(--lime);text-decoration:none;border-bottom:2px solid rgba(168,224,57,.35)}\n.sq-bpg__geoq{margin-top:18px;font-size:13px;font-weight:700;color:var(--tx)}\n.sq-bpg__toggle{display:flex;gap:6px;margin-top:9px}\n.sq-bpg__tab{flex:1;text-align:center;cursor:pointer;user-select:none;font-size:14.5px;font-weight:800;line-height:1.2;padding:10px;border-radius:11px;border:1px solid var(--line);background:rgba(255,255,255,.04);color:var(--mut);transition:.15s}\n.sq-bpg__tab span{display:block;font-size:11px;font-weight:600;margin-top:3px;opacity:.8}\n.sq-bpg__r--us:checked ~ .sq-bpg__toggle .sq-bpg__tab--us,\n.sq-bpg__r--row:checked ~ .sq-bpg__toggle .sq-bpg__tab--row{background:var(--lime);color:#08251a;border-color:var(--lime)}\n.sq-bpg__list{margin-top:16px;border-top:1px solid var(--line)}\n.sq-bpg__row{display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 122px;gap:14px;align-items:center;padding:15px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid var(--line)}\n.sq-bpg__pk{font-size:16px;font-weight:800;line-height:1.25;color:var(--tx)}\n.sq-bpg__top{display:inline-block;vertical-align:middle;margin-left:8px;font-size:10px;font-weight:800;letter-spacing:.8px;text-transform:uppercase;color:#5b3b00;background:linear-gradient(90deg,#ffe07a,var(--gold));padding:3px 8px;border-radius:6px}\n.sq-bpg__why{display:block;margin-top:5px;font-size:13.5px;line-height:1.5;color:var(--mut)}\n.sq-bpg__pr{text-align:center}\n.sq-bpg__prob{display:block;font-size:26px;font-weight:800;color:var(--lime);line-height:1}\n\/* pre-odds confidence stars (shown at launch before prices post;
