Club America will welcome Club Leon to Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes in a top-of-the-table Liga MX Clausura clash on Wednesday. The visitors are unbeaten in seven league games and are at the top of the standings, leading Águilas by three points.
The hosts saw their winning streak in the league ended after four games last week as they suffered a 3-2 home loss to Necaxa. Álvaro Fidalgo bagged a quick-fire brace in the second half to help America come back from two goals down but Kevin Rosero bagged a stoppage-time match-winner for Necaxa.
La Fiera registered their sixth win of the league campaign on Sunday with a 2-1 away triumph over Atletico San Luis. James Rodríguez provided the assists for the goals of Stiven Mendoza and Paul Bellón. Sébastien Salles-Lamonge, who had scored for San Luis in the 22nd minute, failed to convert from the spot in stoppage time.
