Tijuana and Club America get their Mexican Liga MX Clausura campaign underway when they go head-to-head at the Estadio Caliente on Sunday.
Having won their mid-season friendly fixture last time out, both sides will head into the weekend looking to kick off the second half of the campaign on a high.
Tijuana turned in a solid team performance last Saturday when they cruised to a 3-1 friendly victory over Necaxa.
Prior to that, Miguel Herrera’s men were on a two-game losing run, suffering successive defeats against Club America and Pachuca in the final two games of the Apertura.
