There's no exiting this stadium without a winner tonight as it's the second leg of the CONCACAF Champions League 8th Finals meeting between América and Comunicaciones. Game on!
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for América and Comunicaciones.
These teams have little in common geographically as Comunicaciones have to travel 1400 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
América form and stats
América must be fairly happy with 6 points from their first three Liga MX games here at Estadio Azteca. The happy trend is alive also outside their own arena as América has won their last four matches.
Nothing to worry about in defence for América, as their goalkeeper Oscar Francisco Jimenez Fabela has completely shut out the opponents for 225 minutes in the Liga MX.
Happy days for América in their previous game, a Liga MX match away at Monterrey that ended with a 1-0 victory. A 1-1 draw away in the CONCACAF Champions League before that, with Comunicaciones the opponent.
Guillermo Ochoa loved the game against Monterrey. With a stunning nine saves the goalkeeper played a huge part in the 1-0 victory.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Necaxa are coming to town in three days.
The América fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 4 in 3 matches. On the other hand, América have conceded 3 goals.
Comunicaciones form and stats
Playing away, Comunicaciones have won 3 games, drawn 1 and suffered 0 defeats in the Liga Nacional this season. Comunicaciones love their trips these days, as their two previous away games have resulted in victories.
Two travels in a row for Comunicaciones, whose manager M. Tapia could celebrate last time after the Liga Nacional win against Siquinala. A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting América in the CONCACAF Champions League.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Deportivo Sanarate in just four days.
Today's guests are confident travelers having scored 11 goals in 4 league games away this season. Comunicaciones have conceded 7 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
These teams' last encounter with each other was the Comunicaciones - América 1-1 earlier this season.Top Goalscorers
