Gabriel Milito hasn't beaten Toluca or Cruz Azul with Guadalajara Chivas
Since his arrival in May 2025, Gabriel Milito has performed well with Guadalajara Chivas, but there are two Liga MX teams he hasn't defeated: Toluca and Cruz Azul. His record against Cruz Azul is zero wins, two draws, and four losses, while he has lost all three matches against Toluca. Currently, Chivas sits in 17th place in Liga MX with 0 points after a loss in their first game of the season.
Why are these teams a challenge for Milito?
The Argentine coach has made a significant impact at Chivas, achieving a 61.5% win rate and setting records like 36 points and 11 wins in a short tournament. However, Cruz Azul and Toluca have been tough opponents. The former is the current league leader with a 6-point lead, while the latter is a historic rival in the championship.
Can Milito break this streak in the Apertura 2026?
Despite overall good results, Milito's pending task is winning the league title. In his first tournament, he lost in the quarterfinals to Cruz Azul, and in the following season, although he reached the semifinals, he lost again to the same team. Now, with a reinforced squad and his next match against FC Dallas on August 9, the pressure to win the championship is greater than ever.
