Club de Fútbol Monterrey are looking to snap a poor run in the Clasico Regio when they host Tigres UANL on Sunday, September 13 at Estadio BBVA, in the return leg of a fixture the felinos won 1-0 on March 8.
The build-up to the Clasico Regio
Official Liga MX data places Rayados 11th in the table, with 9 points from a possible 18 after six matchdays, following a 2-0 defeat to Toluca last Sunday, with goals from Alexis Vega (4') and Helio Junior Nunes de Castro (70'). Monterrey have won one, drawn one and lost three of their last five matches, sitting seven points behind leaders Club America.
An equally inconsistent rival
Tigres UANL arrive 15th in the standings, having drawn with Necaxa (1-1) and Santos Laguna (0-0) in their last two outings, confirming that neither Monterrey rival side is in its best form ahead of the international break. The full table can be checked on our standings page before kickoff.

In their most recent outing, Erick Andrada started in goal and Hector Cuypers led the line as the striker in Monterrey's 4-2-3-1, while Tigres fielded a 4-4-2 with Raymundo Aguirre and Angel Brunetta up front. Both coaching staffs can review the opposition's squad before finalizing their teams for matchday 7, a fixture also listed on the fixtures calendar.
