Guillermo Almada’s men boast a 100% home record this year and will head into the weekend looking to pick up a fourth consecutive win on home turf. Pachuca were sent crashing back down to earth last Sunday when they fell to a 3-2 defeat against Monterrey at the Estadio BBVA.

Having suffered a 2-1 first-leg defeat, Club America turned in a resilient team performance on Thursday as they picked up a 2-0 victory over Real Esteli to claim a 3-2 aggregate win in the CONCACAF Champions League qualifiers.
Andre Jardine’s men now turn their attention to Liga MX, where they have enjoyed an unbeaten start to the new campaign, claiming four wins and two draws in their six matches so far.
With 14 points from the first 18 available, Club America are currently second in the league table, level on points with first-placed Monterrey.
