Overview
- El Tri plays Paraguay on Tuesday at the Alamodome in San Antonio, with TV coverage on Canal 5, Azteca 7, TUDN and VIX+.
- Mexico has gone five matches without a victory since winning the Gold Cup, scoring three goals in that stretch and failing to score in three games.
- Coach Javier Aguirre said the team must improve and is using these friendlies to shape the best possible XI for June 2026.
- Paraguay arrives already qualified for the World Cup after a recent 2-1 loss to the United States, with Miguel Almirón and Julio Enciso among the key names to watch.
- Aguirre has rotated heavily in recent outings, with players such as Armando González and goalkeeper Carlos Acevedo potentially in line for larger roles, and Mexico has no confirmed fixtures after this match though two January games in Central America are being planned.
