América aim to reclaim Apertura 2026 lead against Necaxa | OneFootball

According to Americayya.net, América meet Necaxa tonight to close matchday 10 of the Apertura 2026, aiming to reclaim top spot.

They arrive off a loss to Cruz Azul and a draw with Chivas. Both games followed a similar pattern, a poor first half then a much stronger second.

Even so, América are third in the standings and remain well placed to recover the lead, which they held across several matchdays.

To return to first place tonight they would need to win by three goals or more, the margin required to move above Toluca, who are three points ahead.

That is not the only route, as América have two fixtures pending, tonight’s against Necaxa and another against Xolos on 28 October.

The priority is to secure victory this evening without obsessing over goal difference, with the game in hand offering an advantage heading into the final stretch of the regular phase.
