Tigres UANL team news and form: Mexican club ready for action
With 22 shots at target against Juarez a couple of days ago, perhaps coach Pizarro’s players deserved a more expressive win than the 1-0 we saw. The good news for the Argentine manager is that he will be able to rely on all of his key players.
Predicted lineup: Guzman (GK), Aquino, Zwarg, Sanchez, Garza, Lainez, Brunetta, Gorriaran, Herrera, Ibanez & Correa

Houston Dynamo team news and form: Injury issues burden Olsen
Nelson Quinones, Tomas Wiesner, Daniel Steres, and backup shot-stopper Andrew Tarbell are all injured and will miss the game against Liga MX’s Tigres UANL. However, we believe coach Olsen will surely rely on Jonathan Bond under the sticks.
Predicted lineup: Bond (GK), Ortiz, Bartlow, Escobar, Dorsey, Urso, Artur, Lingr, McGlynn, Ponce & Kowalczyk

Player to watch: Andre-Pierre Gignac
You should know that Andre-Pierre Gignac wasn’t among coach Pizarro’s starters in the match against Juarez on 20 July. However, the 39-year-old veteran did make a second-half appearance, making life difficult for Juarez’s defenders.
Can the French goalscoring genius do it?
Gignac bagged seven domestic league goals during the 2024/25 Liga MX campaign. Moreover, he also scored four CONCACAF Champions Cup goals in 2024. He deserves to be singled out in our Tigres UANL vs Houston Dynamo prediction, as we expect him to do well this week.
