The Club America vs Monarcas Morelia Liga MX semifinal match will be broadcast live online and on TV as Las Aguilas host La Monarquia at the Estadio Azteca this Sunday, December 8, at 4:30 PM Pacific.
Club America is arguably the top favorite to take the 2019 Apertura trophy after defeating Tigres UANL in the quarterfinals. However, Los Azulcremas lost 2-0 to Monarcas Morelia in the first-leg of this semifinal series and are now in hot water.
The Mexico City team will also be without fullback Jorge Sanchez as he received a red card in that first-leg. Club America has a solid roster, but consistency is not always there for the attackers, who were shut down at the Estadio Morelos.
Monarcas Morelia has a decent advantage heading into this second-leg, but cannot get comfortable at the Estadio Azteca. La Monarquia does not have a strong enough backline to try and hold this two-goal lead by playing conservatively.
Especially considering that Chilean defender Sebastian Vegas will not be available for this game due to a suspension. The team from Michoacan will need to capitalize on their scoring opportunities and be very aggressive on the counter, like in the first-leg.
Club America vs Monarcas Morelia Prediction
