Monarcas Morelia Vs. Cruz Azul Live, 2011 Apertura Liguilla: Lineups

Cruz Azul and Monarcas Morelia are both dealing with various injury and suspension problems, and have selected matching 4-4-2 lineups. Morelia's struggles are at the back, and they will play Adrian Aldrete, a left back, in the center of defense. Cruz Azul have switched formations all season, usually favoring one striker, but will go with a 4-4-2 after Javier Orozco impressed last week. Here are the lineups.

Monarcas Morelia Lineup (4-4-2): Vilar; Perez, Marquez, Aldrete, Ocampo; Sandoval, Lozano, Cabrera, Ramirez; Sabah, Lugo

Cruz Azul lineup (4-4-2): Corona; Pinto, Dominguez, Araujo, Pereira; Gimenez, Torrado, I. Castro, Aquino; Villa, Orozco
