Guadalajara – Puebla: Setran announces free transport to Estadio AKRON for tonight’s match

The Guadalajara – Puebla match at Estadio AKRON comes with a special transport option for fans arriving by public transit in Jalisco. The Secretariat of Transportation in Jalisco, known as Setran, said the service will help supporters reach the stadium for the Jornada 15 clash of the Clausura 2026 Liga MX. The pickup point will be outside the Estadio Chivas and Ciudad Judicial stations starting at 5: 00 p. m. ET on April 18.

Free Loop service set for fans heading to the stadium

Setran announced a special Loop transport service with four units dedicated to moving supporters to the venue. The units will run at intervals of 15 to 20 minutes, giving fans a direct route from Mi Macro Periférico to the stadium area. The service is designed for those attending Guadalajara – Puebla and will operate from the stations named by the authority.

The measure arrives on the same day Guadalajara hosts Puebla in one of the most watched fixtures of the round. Setran’s plan focuses on easing access to Estadio AKRON and helping fans reach the match on time without needing to rely on private transport. The service point is set outside the Estadio Chivas and Ciudad Judicial stations, where passengers can wait for the units from 5: 00 p. m. ET.

Guadalajara – Puebla and the pressure on Chivas

On the field, Guadalajara – Puebla carries added weight for Chivas after the team’s heavy 4-1 loss to Tigres UANL in its previous match at Estadio Universitario. The club is seeking to recover quickly and return to winning form in front of its home crowd. The same context also puts attention on the team’s recent home record, which has made Estadio AKRON a difficult place for visiting sides.

Chivas has gone 210 days without a defeat at home and is riding an 11-match unbeaten run in league play at Estadio AKRON. A positive result in Guadalajara – Puebla would give the team 12 straight home league matches without a loss, which would move it beyond the club’s 2017 mark in short tournaments. The current home run includes nine wins and two draws, a stretch that has helped build its position near the top of the competition.

Recent results point to a familiar edge

The recent history between the two sides also favors the home team. Chivas beat Puebla 0-2 in the Apertura 2025 meeting, with goals from Bryan González and Omar Govea. The last time they met in Guadalajara, during the Clausura 2025, the home side won 1-0 with a goal from Erick Gutiérrez.

That record gives the night extra urgency for supporters planning to attend Guadalajara – Puebla, especially with the free Loop service aimed at making access easier. Setran’s operation begins at 5: 00 p. m. ET on April 18, and the next hours will determine whether Chivas can pair the transport announcement with a much-needed response on the pitch in Guadalajara – Puebla.
