It's time! Chivas USA "host" the LA Galaxy in the first edition of the 2012 superclasico (7:30 pm PDT, ESPN2/ESPN Deportes). It should be a good atmosphere, and while we'll need to see how the game unfolds, as ever, it has been a week of changes for Chivas, and optimism is high heading into this game. Can Chivas finally beat the Galaxy? Will these teams score? Will new Chivas Danny Califf and Juan Agudelo feature? What formation will Robin Fraser use?

All this will be revealed soon enough. In the meantime, be sure to check out the Match Preview as well as the Three Questions exchange with Josie Becker from Thursday.

I'll be in the stands tonight for this match, and so I won't provide my regular play-by-play and in the moment observations. Apologies for that, but if you want to talk about the match, either before, during, or after the match, feel free!

Arriba las Chivas!
