Puebla and Chivas will open the Clausura 2021 as they meet in Puebla. Puebla was the surprise team of the Liguilla after barely making it at 12th but then eliminating Monterrey and beating Leon in the first leg before being eliminated. They will start the season after getting a new coach and having a couple of changes. Meanwhile Chivas will hope to repeat their successful Apertura 2020 where they went to the Semifinals but they will do so after not getting any additions that weren’t loan returns.
Puebla’s season under Juan Reynoso wasn’t as great as many expected.
