The Club America vs Monarcas Morelia Liga MX match will be broadcast live online and on TV as Las Aguilas host La Monarquia at the Estadio Azteca this Saturday, August 17, at 7:05 PM Pacific.
Club America has been one of the best teams in the 2019 Apertura, currently in third place with 10 points after four games played. Los Azulcremas are coming off a 1-0 win against Toluca in league play and also enjoyed a 3-1 win against Club Tijuana a week before that.
The Mexico City team did suffer a 3-2 loss to Atlanta United in the Campeones Cup during the week, but now the focus shifts back to the Liga MX. Oscar Jimenez is confirmed to be starting this game as Club America supporters will need to wait for Guillermo Ochoca’s debut until next Tuesday in the Leagues Cup. Renato Ibarra will be one of the key players to watch in this match as the Ecuadorian winger has scored in America’s last three games in all competitions.
Monarcas Morelia is coming off a slim 1-0 loss to Monterrey in Liga MX play, in a game where “Shaggy” Martinez also received a red card. However, despite only having three points so far, the team from Michoacan has not played badly to start off the season.
The attack has some intriguing players like Fernando Aristeguieta, Edison Flores and Lucas Villafanez. The midfield and backline could use some fine-tuning, but considering the quality of the squad, the results have not been all that bad.
America vs Monarcas Morelia Prediction
FutnSoccer predicts a 2-1 win for Club America as the Mexico City team will have the home-field advantage at the Azteca and also has the better overall squad.
