Roberto Alvarado, Luis Olivas, Hiram Mier, Fernando Beltrán, and now Briseño, reportedly, have all tested positive for Covid-19 so far just a couple of weeks into the season.

Should the player in question test negative on Friday, he will be able to play this weekend.

The subsidiary team of Chivas, Tapatío, have recorded seven positive cases themselves this week.
