América and Tigres UANL are both doing (very) nicely in the Liga MX with their 1st and 3rd spots respectively. This could be a top match!

Insights:
  • América have the the best goal difference (+11) in Liga MX
  • Tigres UANL have the most scored goals (21) in Liga MX

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.

These teams have little in common geographically as Tigres UANL have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
