Tijuana welcome America for another interesting Liga MX fixture here at Estadio Caliente.
Tijuana have less rest than América in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Copa MX game only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Atlético San Luis.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting América have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 0-0-1 (win-draw-loss) from one match.
It's quite the trip for América when visiting Tijuana as the cities are 2700 kilometers apart.
