Chivas has experienced a period of mixed results during the Apertura 2026 tournament. Initially, the team faced a difficult stretch, extending a winless streak to four matches following a draw against Tigres. Coach Gabriel Milito attributed these struggles to a lack of precision in the final third and various player injuries.

Despite the difficulty in securing victories, the club established itself as a leader in defensive performance, recording six clean sheets in 14 rounds. To address the ongoing issue of clinical finishing, management is reportedly looking to bolster the squad with offensive reinforcements, such as Tahiel Jiménez and Alí Ávila, ahead of the 2027 season.
