América rule out Vinicius Lima for Juárez, Zendejas and Henry Martín doubtful, Clausura 2026 | OneFootball

América face Juárez on Wednesday in matchday nine of the Clausura 2026, seeking a response after a painful home defeat by Tigres.

According to Americayya.net, that setback drew heavy criticism because they had just thrashed Puebla, which many thought would kick-start their campaign.

Against Tigres, familiar flaws resurfaced, including a lack of attacking depth, individual errors and a fragile defence not previously seen in this tournament.

Juárez offer a chance to rebound, being a side akin to Puebla, lodged near the foot of the table with more defeats than wins so far.

One player has been ruled out entirely, Vinicius Lima, while two others remain doubtful.

Alejandro Zendejas and Henry Martín have recovered from injury, but it is still undecided whether they will feature.

The reasoning is to avoid risking them, particularly with a packed schedule that includes the Concacaf Champions Cup round of 16.
