Mexico's top-flight soccer league is postponing a weekend match in Guadalajara due to Hurricane Patricia, the powerful Category 5 storm heading for a Friday landfall on the country's Pacific Coast.

The league says via Twitter that Saturday's match between the city's Chivas and Atlas clubs will be played Nov. 11 instead.

Guadalajara is the capital of Jalisco state, one of several in the path of the monster storm.

Forecasts indicate Patricia will likely pass to the west of the city, perhaps still at hurricane strength.
