Club América face Austin in Leagues Cup group finale today | OneFootball

Club América face Austin today in the final round of the Leagues Cup group stage, chasing a third straight win after defeating San Diego and Portland Timbers.

According to Americayya.net, América are yet to secure qualification mathematically, though elimination at this point would take a disaster.

Austin arrive as leaders of their MLS group after victories over Xolos and Puebla, yet in MLS they sit second-bottom in the Western Conference on 17 points.

Luis Ángel Malagón and Alejandro Zendejas are ruled out.

The expected XI is Rodolfo Cota in goal, with Ramón Juárez and Miguel Vázquez at centre-back, Dagoberto Espinoza at right-back and Kevin Álvarez at left-back.

Alan Cervantes partners Israel Reyes in midfield, with Raphael Veiga further forward behind a front line of Brian Rodríguez on the left, Isaías Violante on the right and Alejandro Cárdenas through the middle.

Kick-off is at 18:30 Central Mexico Time, with global coverage on Apple TV.
