Less than six days after the World Cup, the 2018-19 Liga MX and Ascenso MX seasons kick off. Some teams may be integrating new players, while others, like Santos Laguna, are dealing with the loss of key talismen (like Djaniny and Nestor Araujo).
Most teams, however, are still in a feeling out process and may use this match to figure out their range of strategies, lineups, squads, and plans going into the rest of the Apertura 2018 tournament.
Here is where you can catch the action from Jornada 1. All kickoff times are given in Eastern DST (UTC -4) and TV listings (non-streaming options) are for the United States only.
