Juarez host Club America at the Estadio Olímpico Benito Juárez in Liga MX Apertura action on Wednesday.
Club America continued their winning streak in the Mexican top-flight with a narrow 1-0 win at Atlas last time around. They also kept a third consecutive clean sheet in that win.
Juarez are one of five clubs without a win in the league but avoided a loss for the second game in a row as they held Tijuana to a 1-1 draw at home in their previous outing.

Juarez vs Club America Head-to-Head
Juarez only secured promotion to Liga MX in 2019 and as a result, the two clubs have squared off just six times across all competitions. Four fixtures have taken place in Liga MX, while two meetings came in the 2018-19 Copa MX.
The head-to-head record is exactly even at the moment with two wins for each side while two games have ended in draws. They last squared off in Liga MX Clausura in January at Estadio Azteca. America scored a goal in either half to secure a 2-0 win.

Juarez vs Club America Prediction
With the two clubs from the opposite end of the table clashing on Wednesday, we expect Club America to take home the three points. The visitors have conceded just one goal in their four outings so far.
Juarez have scored four goals, just one less than America, but the home side have the worst defensive record in the league, having conceded eight goals.
This should be a comfortable away win for Club America.
Prediction: Juarez 0-2 Club America
