The action continues in round eight of the Mexican Liga MX as Club America and Atlas FC square off at the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes on Tuesday. Having failed to win their last five head-to-head encounters, Estadio Jalisco’s men will head into the midweek clash looking to get one over the hosts and continue their strong start to the season.
Club America returned to winning ways at the weekend when they edged out Guadalajara 1-0 at the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes courtesy of a first-half strike from Ramon Jimenez.
This was a much-needed result for Andre Jardine’s side, who had failed to win their previous four matches, claiming one draw and losing three, including a penalty-shootout defeat against Colorado Rapids in the Leagues Cup quarter-finals on August 18.
Club America have endured a slow start to their Liga MX title defence as they sit 12th in the table, having picked up just nine points from their seven matches so far.
