Tigres vs Club America Prediction
Los Tigres have enjoyed an unbeaten start to their league campaign, keeping a clean sheet in two games thus far. They have won three of their last four home games in Liga MX and will look to build on that form. Interestingly, they are winless at home in this fixture since 2017, failing to score in three of their last four home meetings against the visitors, which is a cause for concern.
Águilas bounced back with a win after a narrow loss in their campaign opener and scored more than two goals in a league match for the first time since April. They are winless in their last four away games in Liga MX, scoring just three goals in that period.
While the visitors have enjoyed a 13-game unbeaten streak against the hosts, they have a poor away record in Liga MX. With that in mind and considering home advantage for Tigres, a closely contested draw is likely to ensue.
