The Estadio El Hogar is a multi-use stadium in Matamoros, Mexico. It is currently used mostly for football matches and is the home stadium for Gavilanes de Matamoros. With a capacity of 22,000 people, it was the fourth largest stadium in northeastern Mexico at the time of its completion, behind only top-flight grounds.[1]

It includes 4,000 parking spots, a training center, a panoramic restaurant and artificial lighting.[1]

History

The stadium was completed in time for the 2017–18 Liga Premier season, in which the Gavilanes were admitted to the third-tier league as an expansion team.[2] On 19 August 2017, an inauguration ceremony was held before the team defeated Alacranes de Durango in their first Liga Premier home fixture with an attendance of about 16,000.[3]
