América’s omissions for the Clásico Nacional | OneFootball

This Saturday, another edition of the national clásico will be played, and for the first time in many years, the roles have changed regarding which team comes in stronger.

It had become customary that when this duel took place, Club América arrived better positioned than Chivas in the general standings. But finally, the rival is having a good tournament and comes into this clásico as the tournament leaders with a perfect record, having won five out of five matches.

For their part, América had a negative start to the tournament, earning just two points in the first three rounds, and it wasn't until the fourth round that they managed to bounce back with two consecutive victories.

It will be a very interesting match due to the current form of both teams, and moreover, it will be played in a stadium that is comfortable for the Águilas; since they have a positive record when facing Chivas there.

The players ruled out for this match.

América will have a couple of absences for this match, one of which is a big blow for the team.

Alejandro Zendejas is ruled out of the game after aggravating an injury in the last match against Monterrey, which also caused him to miss the game against Olimpia.

It is not a serious injury, but they prefer not to risk him, so his return is expected for the next round against Puebla.

The other absence is Alan Cervantes, who suffered a muscle tear and will be out for several weeks because of it.
