Sent off in loss
Pineda has earned a one-game ban after receiving a red card in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Guadalajara.
Analysis: Pineda played almost the entire match Saturday, though a late foul led to his dismissal and consequent suspension. He'll be ineligible for the round 15 fixture against Tijuana before returning to contention for a trip to Toluca. This leaves Rayados without a versatile midfielder versus Xolos, a void that might be covered by either Oliver Torres or Luca Orellano.
Assists against America
Pineda assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus America.
Analysis: Pineda played a ball into the center of the box for Diego Rossi to finish in the 18th minute, setting up the opening goal during the draw. It was Pineda's fifth direct contribution of the campaign across all competitions and first since Aug. 25, and he returned to the starting lineup after missing a game while on international duty. He operated a little higher in central midfield, with Cesar Garza and Oliver Torres providing more defensive support, though it's unclear if the will continue to be the case in upcoming fixtures.
