Америка против Тихуана

Club America top the Apertura 2026 table with 24 points from 11 games, and this is a game in hand that can stretch the gap over Toluca and Atlas, both on 21. Tijuana sit tenth on 16 points, level with Santos, Pumas and Puebla, so a result in Mexico City would lift them into the chasing pack. América have won seven, drawn three and lost once, that defeat coming against Cruz Azul. Their latest game was a 5-3 win over León. Henry Martín has been among their scorers this season, with both goals in the 2-1 win at Bravos de Juárez on matchday five. Tijuana have been harder to read. Sebastián Abreu's side won their first four home games, then lost to Querétaro and Atlas at Estadio Caliente and drew 1-1 with Juárez and 0-0 with Puebla. Teenager Gilberto Mora is the name to watch. Our prediction: 2-1
