Պումաս UNAM - Ամերիկա

The Clásico Capitalino arrives on matchday 16 with the two clubs in very different spots. América led the Apertura table on 28 points after matchday 14, two clear of Chivas and Cruz Azul. Pumas UNAM were 12th on 17 points with three games left. There is no play-in this season, so only the top eight reach the quarterfinals, and Pumas need Monterrey, Querétaro, Santos Laguna and San Luis to drop points as well. América lost on matchday 14, while Pumas drew 1-1 with Tigres. The last league meeting went to Pumas in March, when Robert Morales scored a penalty in the 92nd minute for a 1-0 win at this ground. The sides then met in the Clausura quarterfinals, and the first leg finished 3-3. Pumas went on to reach that final. Pumas close the regular season at home to Monterrey on matchday 17. Our prediction: 1-1
