Necaxa hosts FC Juárez at the Estadio Victoria de Aguascalientes in a high-stakes Liga MX Apertura 2026 fixture that pits two teams searching for vital points to steer clear of the relegation danger zone. Both clubs enter the match under mounting pressure following difficult runs of form that have left them occupying the lower depths of the league standings.
Necaxa enters the contest positioned 17th in the overall table under the direction of manager Juan Reynoso. The team has endured a difficult stretch, dropping four of its last five league matches to leave a narrow margin for error. The squad’s recent results include a 1-0 defeat against CD Guadalajara on October 21, a 0-2 loss to Atlas, and a high-scoring 3-3 draw with Pachuca. Across their last five outings, the Rayos have scored nine goals while conceding ten. Reynoso enters the fixture with no confirmed injuries or suspensions reported within the Necaxa squad.
FC Juárez arrives in Aguascalientes facing even greater adversity, sitting at the bottom of the table in 18th place under manager Pedro Caixinha. The border club is still dealing with the fallout of a heavy 5-0 defeat against Cruz Azul on October 18. Their preceding five-game league run includes a lone 2-0 victory over Tigres, a 1-1 draw with Tijuana, and three defeats, yielding four goals scored and nine conceded. Like their opponents, Juárez reports no confirmed roster absences due to suspension or injury ahead of the match.
Historical encounters between the two clubs show a competitive edge. Their most recent meeting took place on February 15, 2026, when Necaxa claimed a 1-2 away victory in Juárez. Across their last five head-to-head matches, Necaxa has secured two wins, Juárez has taken one, and two fixtures have ended in draws, producing a combined total of 14 goals over that span.
