Player to watch: Angel Sepulveda
With nine goals scored since the start of the season, it’s interesting to see Angel Sepulveda pushing hard for 1st place in the goalscoring department. He’d have to do even better if he wants to catch up to Paulinho of Toluca.
Second player to watch: Carlos Rodriguez
Cruz Azul’s Carlos Rodriguez is among the finest creators in the league. Since the start of the 2024/25 Liga MX season, he produced six valuable assists.
