Auriazules saw their unbeaten streak in Liga MX come to an end after four games last week, as they suffered a 2-1 away loss to Pachuca. On-loan attacker John Kennedy bagged a first-half brace for Pachuca and Ignacio Pussetto bagged a stoppage-time consolation goal for Pumas.

The visitors are winless in their two league games in 2025, suffering a loss and playing out a draw.

After a 3-2 home loss to Necaxa last week, they played out a 1-1 draw against league leaders Leon on Wednesday. Alejandro Zendejas broke the deadlock in the 11th minute and in-form midfielder James Rodríguez pulled Leon level in the 33rd minute.

Pumas UNAM vs Club America Prediction

Auriazules are unbeaten in their last five competitive home games, recording three wins and keeping three clean sheets. While they have won their last two meetings against the visitors, they have won just one of their last six home games in this fixture.

Águilas are winless in their two competitive games this year and will look to improve upon that record. They have won five of their last six Liga MX away games and will look to build on that form. They have kept four clean sheets in their last five away meetings against Pumas.

Considering the current form of the two teams and recent goalscoring form, a low-scoring draw is likely to ensue.
