Xelajú MC is gearing up for a busy week, balancing domestic league play with their debut in the Copa Centroamericana 2025. After a tough loss against Antigua GFC, the 'Superchivos' are set to face Deportivo Mictlán at home in the Mario Camposeco stadium this Saturday, August 2nd, at 3:45 PM. This match marks their second home game of the Torneo Apertura 2024.

The team is eager to bounce back and capitalize on the momentum from their recent 2-0 victory against Hércules de El Salvador in the Copa Centroamericana. Coach Amarini Villatoro is looking to reignite the winning spirit after their previous league defeat.

Mictlán, on the other hand, is seeking their first win of the season. Led by Mexican coach Adrián Arias, they've had a rocky start with a loss against Comunicaciones and a draw against Malacateco. They are hoping to turn things around against a motivated Xelajú side.

Adding to the excitement, the Mario Camposeco stadium is undergoing a significant upgrade with the installation of new LED lighting. While the new lights won't be ready for this game, they are expected to be inaugurated around August 17th. This upgrade will allow Xelajú MC to host future matches at night, meeting CONCACAF standards for international competitions.

The installation of the LED lighting is a major step forward for the club, ensuring they can host international matches at their home stadium. This includes not only improved lighting but also upgrades to the locker rooms and playing field.

Looking ahead, Xelajú MC is determined to compete strongly in both the Torneo Apertura and the Copa Centroamericana. The team is focused on improving their defensive play and capitalizing on scoring opportunities. Fans can expect an exciting match against Mictlán this Saturday.
