The biggest rivalry in the Mexican top flight will see América trying to win two games against their bitter opponent in the same week.

How do Guadalajara and América get to this game?

Guadalajara enters this clash on a three-game streak without a win in all comps. El Rebaño has only won one of their last six games (against San Luis in Copa MX). Added to that, Cardozo's men have not been able to score in their three recent games, conceding four during that run.

América has won four out of their last six, including this mid-week's triumph against their bitter rival. América managed to keep clean sheets in two straight games for the first time since winning the title back in December, but some might say that they had a bit of help from Puebla and Chivas, who hardly got close to scoring. Amérioca has not won a single Liga MX game away from home.

What is Guadalajara and América's position in the Liga MX ahead of this game?

Guadalajara gets to the Mexican Clásico in eighth place of the competition. Chivas has won four out of their ten games, with three draws and three losses to complete their tally. The red-and-white side has scored 11 goals while conceding nine, which shows how they have struggled on both ends of the pitch.

América has also struggled in their title defense, since they have only won one more point than their opponent tonight. Hence, América is fifth with 15 points. Las Águilas have won five games, but they have already lost four, which doubles their tally from last season. The current Liga MX champions have failed to win any of their three most recent away games (two losses, one draw).
