This Saturday, the Eagles will be visiting Monterrey in matchday 9 of the Apertura 2025.
The team arrives at this match with some doubts after accumulating two negative results this September; first, they fell in a friendly match against DC United and then surprisingly lost the national classic against Chivas.
And we can't even say that the team played well or deserved more, both matches were lost deservedly, with a very disappointing performance against teams that were among the worst in their respective leagues, with DC United being third from last in the MLS and Chivas being third from last in the Apertura 2025.
The current opponent will not be easy at all, Rayados has undoubtedly been the best team so far in this regular phase and comes into this match with seven consecutive victories in Liga MX.
But this can be positive for the Eagles as they tend to rise to the occasion against this type of rival, as we saw in this same tournament when they visited Tigres with the feline team as the favorite and the score ended 1-3 in favor of the azulcremas.
The players ruled out for this match.
The Eagles will have two absences for this match, Henry Martín and Jonathan dos Santos, both due to injury; it is expected that both players will be back in two or three weeks.
Regarding Álvaro Fidalgo who was injured in the match against Chivas, he couldn't train fully throughout the week, but they still decided he should travel with Rayados.
It's unlikely he will play, and he will most likely be on the bench and only see minutes if necessary.
