América omit Alejandro Zendejas for Puebla visit in Clausura 2026 | OneFootball

América visit Puebla on Friday in matchday 7 of the Clausura 2026, and they will be without Alejandro Zendejas. According to Americayya.net, the midfielder did not travel.

América have started slowly with two wins, two draws and two defeats, and they are the league’s weakest attack with only three goals. The defence has been a positive, with just three conceded, the second-best record, and Luis Ángel Malagón has the most clean sheets, four in six.

Puebla have struggled to turn home into a fortress. They beat Mazatlán 2-1, drew 0-0 with Toluca, then lost 2-3 to Pumas in their most recent home game.

It shapes as an intriguing contest, with América in urgent need of points and Puebla aiming to exploit their dip to claim three at home.

Despite recovering from injury, Zendejas has been left out as the staff do not want to risk him, particularly on a pitch considered to be in poor condition.

He is expected to return for the Tigres match on Saturday 28 January.
