Club Necaxa vs Club America Prediction and Betting Tips

Round three of Mexican Liga MX comes to an end when Club Necaxa play host to Club America on Saturday. Andre Jardine’s men are unbeaten in their last seven visits to the Estadio Victoria (3W, 4D) and will head into the weekend looking to extend this dominant six-year streak.

Johan Rojas, Agustín Palavecino and Pavel Perez all found the back of the net to fire Club Necaxa to a 3-1 home victory over Queretaro last Saturday.

Prior to that, Fernando Gago’s side were on a four-game winless run, claiming two draws and losing twice, including a 3-1 defeat against Toluca in the Liga MX season opener on July 13.

Necaxa will be backing themselves to keep the momentum going this weekend as they take on an opponent, who have failed to win their last three meetings in this fixture since a narrow 3-2 victory in August 2023.

Club America were denied their first piece of silverware of the new campaign as they fell to a 3-1 defeat against Toluca in the Campeón de Campeones on Monday.

Jardine’s men now turn their focus to Liga MX, where they kicked off the season with a 1-1 stalemate against Juarez on July 12, five days before claiming a dominant 3-1 victory over Club Tijuana.

Club America head into the weekend unbeaten in four of their last five league matches — claiming two wins and two draws — with a 2-0 loss against Toluca in May’s Clausura playoff final being the exception.
