Club America and Queretaro return to action in Mexican Liga MX when they square off at the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes on Saturday. Benjamin Mora’s Queretaro have lost each of their six games in all competitions this term and will head into the weekend looking to finally get their season up and running.
Club America, meanwhile, picked up consecutive victories for the first time this season as they edged out MLS side Portland Timbers on penalties in the Leagues Cup on Wednesday.
Prior to that, Andre Jardine’s men kicked off the Leagues Cup campaign with a penalty shootout loss against Real Salt Lake on July 31, three days before needing penalties to beat Minnesota United following a thrilling 3-3 stalemate at Shell Energy Stadium.
Club America now return to action in Liga MX, where they have picked up one win and two draws from their opening three matches this season while scoring five goals and conceding three so far.
As for Queretaro, they will be looking to quickly move on from their forgettable performance in the 2025 Leagues Cup, where they lost each of their three group games.
This was similar to their struggles in Liga MX, where Mora’s side have lost their opening three games this season, suffering defeats against Tijuana, Necaxa and Pumas UNAM.
Queretaro’s underwhelming start to the season has been due to their lack of sting in front of goal, as they have netted just twice this season while conceding 12 goals so far.
