Club América is already in Puebla for the match against the local team for the 7th round of the Clausura 2026.

The eagles come to this match with more doubts than certainties, after a rather irregular start to the tournament and many problems generating goal-scoring opportunities in the opponent's area.

After six rounds played, the azulcrema team is the worst offense of the tournament with only three goals scored, something not seen in the eagles since the 1988 season.

But not everything is negative; defensively, the team has performed very well, being the second-best defense of the tournament with only three goals conceded, two of which came with 10 players on the field, in the game against Atlético de San Luis. In other words, they have only conceded goals in two of six matches played.

Against Puebla, it is expected that we will finally see all the reinforcements available; it is very likely that Raphael Veiga and Vinicius Lima will start, while Thiago Espinosa will be available on the bench.

The probable lineup for this match.

In goal will be Luis Ángel Malagón.

In central defense, Sebastián Cáceres alongside Ramón Juárez; on the right side Aaron Mejía and on the left Cristian Borja.

In midfield, we might see Rodrigo Dourado alongside Vinicius Lima and slightly ahead of them, Raphael Veiga.

And in the offensive zone, Brian Rodríguez on the left, Isaías Violante on the right, and Henry Martín as the center forward.
