Tigres will entertain Mazatlan at Estadio Universitario in Liga MX on Sunday.
Tigres vs Mazatlan Preview
Tigres are pushing to hit the top six before the close of the Torneo Clausura as they aim to claim qualification to the final phase quarterfinals. They sit just outside the lot, in seventh place, with 18 points. The hosts could also be aiming for the top spot, with 18 points up for grabs across the remaining six matchdays.
Los Tigres ran an impressive campaign in the first tournament of the season - 2023 Aperture - finishing third in the regular phase. In the final phase, they reached the final but lost to America. Tigres still have glory in their sights but must stop dropping points if they intend to replicate last season's achievement.

Mazatlan are far from the top spot and must have abandoned that ambition, with six rounds of matches to spare. They sit 15th out of 18 teams on nine points, trailing first-placed Monterrey by 16 points. The visitors have managed only two wins in their last 10 matches in all competitions.
Cañoneros finished bottom of the 2023 Clausura (18th) and failed to qualify for the final phase. They face the prospect of reliving a similar experience, considering their form and position in the standings. However, Mazatlan have lost only once in their last five away clashes with Tigres.

Luis Amarilla has been Mazatlan's main attacking threat, netting five goals so far. He will aim to disrupt the home side as he did in his side's previous trips. However, he will also be the first target for the Tigres defenders.
