Queretaro FCQueretaro FCRayados de MonterreyRayados de MonterreyQueretaro FC and Rayados de Monterrey both possess sharp attacking styles, with Queretaro relying on the individual brilliance of Ali Ávila and Santiago Homenchenko in a 4-2-3-1 formation, while Rayados de Monterrey control the game through the duo of Lucas Ocampos and Diego Rossi, but lack defensive flexibility. Both teams display instability in defense, as Queretaro conceded 7 goals in 6 matches and Rayados conceded 10 goals in 6 matches, creating opportunities for opponents' quick counterattacks.

The tactical relationship between the two teams revolves around Rayados' ball control and Queretaro's counterattacking ability, but both need to improve their defensive organization to minimize risks from quick transitions.
