There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
América form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here at Estadio Azteca as América, who have the most scored goals (31) in Liga MX, have scored 19 goals to get 20 points from 9 games. The overall stats in the Liga MX are 6-2-1 (wins-draws-losses). América has won so many consecutive home games (five in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Estadio Azteca. We remember; it was Guadalajara.
América are confident in defense, having played 315 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.
América enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Tijuana's place. The match ended 2-0 with Henry Martín and Pedro Aquino scoring. Ahead of that match, América won a home game hosting Pachuca (2-0).
This is expected to be a close game, with América perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with América as a small favourite), we find seven games. América has won five of these, drawn one and lost one.
América can score goals in their home matches. After 9 league matches they have found the net 19 times. América have conceded 9 in these home matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
León form and stats
León, who have the the best goal difference (+13) in Liga MX, have an excellent away record in the Liga MX so far with 5-3-1 from 9 games.
León's previous game was their home loss versus Puebla (1-2). The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Cruz Azul.
León were so close to getting something from the game against Puebla, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal five minutes into overtime.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by León in our archives, and the results are: four wins for León, zero draws and three defeats.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Liga MX trip to Monterrey.
The visiting León have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 12 goals from 9 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (7 so far). It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
Head 2 Head
This is the result when the teams met earlier this season; León - América 3-2. América-León H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: América two wins, León six wins, two draws. three of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).Top Goalscorers
