They played out a 2-2 draw at Queretaro in the previous outing, which helped them retain third place in the league standings.

Club America vs Pachuca Prediction
Pachuca are on a good run of form at the moment, scoring 10 goals and conceding six so far. Club America have scored in all but one of their league games so far but have conceded 10 goals in five games.
Santiago Solari needs to turn things around at the club as there have been rumors about his sacking recently.
Things just haven't clicked for the hosts this season and another loss seems to be on the cards after yet another disappointing outing in their midweek game.
Prediction: Club America 1-2 Pachuca
