Unity, confidence, and good soccer will be Guadalajara’s weapons as they face El Clásico de México this Saturday night—an ideal stage to extend their perfect start to the Clausura 2026. Matchday 6 presents a crucial showdown for the Rojiblancos, who will have the backing of the Chivahermanos, as tickets once again sold out at Estadio AKRON, the “Home of Mexicans.”
Gabriel Milito fully understands what a clash against the fiercest sporting rival represents, and for that reason he defined the squad list based on the core group of players who have sustained the current winning streak.
There are a couple of important updates to consider. After the match against Mazatlán F.C., José Castillo and Luis Romo were both in doubt, and now there is clarity. First of all, Castillo is available and eligible to play against Club América. Meanwhile, Luis Romo is dealing with a muscle injury in his right thigh, and his return to action will depend on his recovery progress.
Chivas’ squad list for El Clásico de México:
- Raúl Rangel
- Óscar Whalley
- Richard Ledezma
- Miguel Gómez
- Miguel Tapias
- Diego Campillo
- José Castillo
- Ángel Chávez
- Rubén González
- Bryan González
- Omar Govea
- Brian Gutiérrez
- Daniel Aguirre
- Efraín Álvarez
- Yael Padilla
- Roberto Alvarado
- Hugo Camberos
- Santiago Sandoval
- Armando González
