This week the activity of the Liga MX Apertura 2021 tournament resumes, after a hiatus for the FIFA Date in October, and one of the most interesting meetings of the weekend will be the visit of the UANL Tigres to Mexico City to face the current Mexican soccer champion, the Blue Cross Machine.
The confrontation will be very complicated and both clubs will try to add the three points to stay among the eight best in the championship, therefore, the technical director of the feline team, Miguel Herrera, will go out with ‘all the meat on the grill’ and will send his best men among which will be the French striker André-Pierre Gignac, after approximately three weeks of absence after having relapsed in his ankle injury.

In recent days, the historical top scorer for San Nicolás de los Garza’s box has begun to train alongside his teammates, after he suffered from his ankle injury that he suffered at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games and was taken away from the first seven dates of the Apertura 2021.
This relapse took him away for approximately three weeks and made him miss the last two days of the contest against Atlético de San Luis and Necaxa, for which reason, he has been being considered in the intersquadrons to start as a starter in the duel against the Machine.
