Monterrey host Cruz Azul on Sarturday night in a clash between two of the most powerful rosters not only in Liga MX, but in all of North American soccer.

Both squads were semifinalists a season ago and added even more talent to their ranks over the winter. Saturday’s clash will also serve as a preview for their upcoming Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16 tie.

Despite overflowing with talent, Monterrey have been unimpressive since the start of the Clausura 2026 season and after winning just one of their last four, Rayados are, incredibly, on the outside looking into the playoff picture currently.

Cruz Azul, on the other hand, have gotten better and better with each passing week. Nicolás Larcamón’s side defeated title contenders Tigres and then ended league leaders Chivas’ perfect start of the season to get within touching distance of the Clausura 2026 summit.

With Monterrey desperate for a result at home and Cruz Azul looking formidable, Saturday’s contest could be an absolute spectacle. Here’s how you can catch the action.
