Liga MX, as well as the rest of the major international tournaments has been put momentarily on pause as players are in action for their respective nations as part of the FIFA break.
El Tri have two friendly games during this window and recorded a 2-2 against Australia and now face Uzbekistan this Tuesday, 12 September in Dallas. Soon after the final whistle in Texas, thoughts will then return to the domestic game with matchday 8 of the 2023 Liga MX Apertura coming up at the weekend.

When does Liga MX return?

The spotlight, however this weekend falls on the Estadio Azteca on Saturday night as Club America face Chivas Guadalajara in the Clásico Nacional with both teams desperate for three points in their push to ensure a top four place.
