Club America and Chivas Guadalajara go head-to-head in the second leg of their all-Mexican CONCACAF Champions Cup round-of-16 tie on Wednesday.
Having suffered a heavy defeat in the first leg, Fernando Gago’s men will journey to the Estadio Azteca hoping for a miracle as they look to overturn a three-goal deficit.
Club America continued their fine run of results as they cruised to a 2-0 victory over Tigres UANL in the Mexican top flight last Saturday.
André Jardine’s side have now won four games on the bounce across all competitions, a run which has seen them surge to second place in the Liga MX table.
Club America now head to the Champions Cup, where they beat Real Esteli 3-2 on aggregate in the first round before securing a 3-0 win over Chivas Guadalajara in the first leg of their round-of-16 tie on March 6.
Chivas, meanwhile, failed to find their feet at the weekend as they suffered a 2-1 defeat against Club Leon at the Estadio Akron in Liga MX.
Gago’s men have now lost three games on the trot, conceding eight goals and scoring just once since February’s 3-1 victory over Universidad Nacional.
While Chivas will be looking to stop the rot and make a remarkable comeback on Wednesday, they have struggled to get going away from home, where they are currently on a three-game winless run.
