Likely line-up to face Portland Timbers: Leagues Cup | OneFootball

This Wednesday, the eagles will be facing Portland Timbers in the last matchday of Leagues Cup 2025.

The eagles come into this match with minimal chances of qualifying for the next round, as they depend on the results of other teams, in addition to having to win against Portland Timbers by a wide goal difference.

Even by the time the match is played, the team could already be eliminated, and in case that happens, André Jardine could be sending an alternate lineup for this match.

Another detail is that if the negotiation for Brian Rodríguez to join Al-Rayaan advances, André could make the decision to leave him out of the call-up to avoid risking him to an injury.

Portland Timbers has had a 'perfect' tournament, winning two victories in two matches, with five goals scored and none conceded.

'Cabecita' Rodríguez is part of the Timbers squad, but unfortunately, there will be no reunion since the ex-Americanist has been out for several months due to injury.

The probable starting 11 for América in this match.

As we previously mentioned, in case the eagles arrive already eliminated to this match, we would see an alternate 11, but while that doesn't happen, this could be the lineup.

Luis Ángel Malagón as the starting goalkeeper.

In central defense, Sebastián Cáceres alongside Ramón Juárez; as right-back, Israel Reyes and on the left, Cristian Borja.

In midfield, Álvaro Fidalgo alongside Jona dos Santos.

And in the offensive zone, Brian Rodríguez on the left, Alejandro Zendejas on the right, Henry Martín as the second striker, and 'Pantera' Zúñiga as the center-forward.
