Monterrey is targeting its 10th consecutive win over Necaxa when the Liga MX rivals face-off on Sunday.
Necaxa hosts Monterrey on Sunday hoping to end a barren five-year drought without so much as a point in this fixture, having lost the last nine straight encounters between the two teams. Both Necaxa and Monterrey came out on top in their first games of the Liga MX Apertura, and either could feasibly end Week 2 of the campaign atop the table in an early bid for supremacy. Los Rayados came away as 2-0 victors the last time they visited the Estadio Victoria in January and in fact haven’t lost a game at this ground since May 2019.

Necaxa started its season with a 2-1 win over Atlante and has the chance to back that result up with another positive performance in front of its own fans.
Julian Carranza continued his superb form since joining the club earlier this year, netting an 81st-minute equalizer from the spot before setting up Miguel Pedroza’s injury time decider.
Pedroza may hope to earn a start from manager Martin Varini following those late heroics, while Carranza will look to continue his hot streak for the Lightning.
Monterrey, meanwhile, earned a 3-2 victory at home to Santos Laguna thanks in large part to an early double capable of Argentinian Lucas Ocampos.
Manager Matias Almeyda will be less enthused by the fact his team conceded twice in front of a home crowd and will hope to sew things up at the back for his first road trip as manager.
The former Sevilla and Guadalajara coach got his dream start to life with Los Rayados and will only enamour himself further with the Monterrey fans if he can make it a perfect six points from six after two games.
