Guillermo Almada's men booked their spot in the semi-final of the Leagues Cup this week, but now must turn their attentions straight back to domestic concerns.
While wholesale changes may not be in store, there may be a place for Jesus Ocejo and Carlos Acevedo after they both sat out the clash with Orlando City.
Predicted Santos Laguna starting XI: Acevedo; Orrantia, Torres, Doria, Andrade; Prieto, Gorriaran; Otero, Valdes, Carrillo; Ocejo.

| Midfielders | Molina, Brizuela, Sanchez, Angulo, Beltran, Torres, Flores, Carlos Cisneros, Magana, Hernandez, Organista |
| Forwards | Huerta, Antuna, Zaldivar, Vega, Godinez, Ronaldo Cisneros, Peralta |
Guadalajara left it late to rescue a point against Juarez last time out but Victor Manuel Vucetich's men will look to make it an easier ride on the road this weekend.
Back from the Gold Cup, Gilberto Sepulveda is likely to retain his spot in a back three, while Alexis Vega could figure in the wider squad following his bronze medal at Tokyo 2020.
Predicted Chivas starting XI: Rodriguez; Sepulveda, Briseno, Olivas; Aguayo, Molina, Torres, Mayorga; Brizuela, Zaldivar, Carlos Cisneros.
