Stadium
Estadio Akron
Zapopan, Mexico
Formerly: Estadio Omnilife, Estadio Chivas, Estadio Guadalajara
Ask which name belongs to this ground and the answer depends on the year you ask. It opened as Estadio Omnilife, became Estadio Chivas in 2016, and has carried the Akron name since 2017 under a sponsorship deal.
The pitch has its own history of second-guessing. It opened on artificial turf in 2010, was switched to natural grass two years later after players complained.
Its opening fixture, a friendly against Manchester United, went to Guadalajara 3-2, with Javier Hernández opening the scoring.
Guadalajara, known as Chivas, have called it home since it opened, and it is set to host four group matches plus a play-off tie at the 2026 World Cup.
