This could be a great fixture, with León in 2nd and América at 1st. Here's news and statistics!
- León have not yet lost a game at home.
- América is in the best form (5-1-0)
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
León form and stats
Seven points from three Liga MX home games is a great start for León, who are hoping to build on that form here at Estadio León.
The home supporters saw a 1-1 draw versus Santos Laguna in the Liga MX last time out and are looking for a win here. Midfield player Ángel Mena got a match rating of 7.81 in that game, the max score being 10. Mena scored one goal, hit two key passes and had 40 successful passes (of 49 total).
Before that match, a win away at Guadalajara.This is expected to be a close game, with León perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with León as a small favourite), we find four games. León has won one of these, drawn one and lost two.
León can score goals in their home matches. After 3 league matches they have found the net 6 times. From these home matches, León have conceded only 2 goals.
América form and stats
América, who have the the best goal difference (+7) in Liga MX, are happy with their away performances in the Liga MX so far, having secured two victories and one draw from their first three travels. Impressively, the visitors are on a five-match winning run which they hope continue versus León.
América go into this game after a win, the home game against Tijuana that ended 2-0. Richard Sánchez got a match rating of 7.43 in that game, top player of the team. Sánchez hit the woodwork once, hit three key passes and had 39 successful passes (of 48 total).
Ahead of that match was the victory versus Juárez at their stadium, the result 2-1.As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 15 similar matches played by América in our archives, and the results are: eight wins for América, three draws and four defeats.
América have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 3 league away games 3 goals have been scored. América are tighter than a frog's bottom, as only 1 away goal have been conceded so far.
