Likely line-up to chase a CONCACAF quarter-final spot | OneFootball

This will be the second leg of the Round of 16 in the Concacaf Champions Cup, remembering that the first leg ended with a 0-1 victory for the Águilas at the rival's home.

It was a match where we saw a dominant América for almost the entire first half, but right after the unfortunate injury to Malagón, the team’s level dropped significantly and in the second half, the rival practically controlled the game.

Fortunately, they managed to maintain their lead on the scoreboard, which is very important since the main tiebreaker criterion is the away goal, and the azulcremas managed to secure one in their favor.

América comes into this match with three consecutive victories, defeating Querétaro, Philadelphia, and recently Mazatlán at home.

Meanwhile, Philadelphia has recorded four consecutive defeats, falling to New York City, San Jose, América, and Atlanta United; they are also the worst team in MLS with four losses in four matches played.

If they advance, they will face the winner of Inter Miami and Nashville SC.

Probable starting XI for Club América.

In goal will be Rodolfo Cota.

At center back will be Sebastián Cáceres and Israel Reyes; as right back, Aarón Mejía, and on the left, Cristian Borja.

In midfield will be Rodrigo Dourado and Erick Sánchez, with Raphael Veiga playing a bit further forward.

And in the attacking zone we’ll see Alejandro Zendejas on the right, Brian Rodríguez on the left, and as center forward, Patricio Salas.
