Next Saturday, February 17, at exactly 9:00 p.m., Tigers and Blue Cross Faces will be seen on the field of the Ciudad de los Deportes stadium, in the match corresponding to matchday number seven of the Clausura 2024 tournament.
Both squads are going through a very good moment. Tigres has not lost a single game in 2024, it has scored six goals in its last two games, in which Nahuel Guzmán managed to keep a clean sheet.
Cruz Azul, for its part, is looking for its fifth consecutive victory so far in the Clausurs 2024 tournament. Martín Anselmi's men are on fire, and will most likely try to impose conditions against the Tigres.
The Colombian midfielder is not exactly one of the favorites of the feline fans. His irregular pace has filled a large part of the Auriazul fans with doubts, and yet, Robert Dante Siboldi continues to give him minutes on the pitch. The result that Tigres achieves next Saturday will depend on how well or how badly they do things against Cruz Azul, playing on one of the wings.
The defensive back has had a bad time so far in 2024. Fans individually point out the actions of certain players, Samir Caetano being one of the most mentioned. Against the Machine, the Brazilian will have to be very focused, otherwise he wants to lose his place in the starting eleven.
The Argentine midfielder has collaborated in at least 60% of the goals scored by Tigres in 2024. He arrived on the right foot and it is expected that next Saturday he will take advantage of the spaces that Martín Anselmi's boys can leave, in the desire to add three by three for the fifth consecutive game.
It is a reality that Tigres depends less and less on André-Pierre Gignac. Not because the player is going through a bad moment, but because of something natural such as the passage of time, added to the fact that the responsibility for the goal in Tigres no longer falls only on his shoulders, but on younger teammates who are just beginning to Write your story with the feline set. Even so, rival defenders cannot give him the slightest space, and the Frenchman only needs one to show that he is stronger than time.
Nicolás Ibañez looks better and better in the Tigres attack. Not only does he contribute with goals directly, but he also serves for his teammates and fights for every ball regardless of whether the score is 0-0 or 3-0 in favor of the university students. On his shoulders rests the great responsibility of becoming the generational replacement of a historical figure like André-Pierre Gignac, and so far he is not doing badly at all.
