América vs Juárez - Team news

América make it to the start of a new season trying to pick upf the pieces of their disappointing elimination against Guadalajara in the semi-finals of the Clausura 2023 campaign, which led to Fernando Ortíz's resignation. Now, with Andre Jardine at the helm, Las Águilas will want to establish themselves as title contenders and live up to that word- The first game of the season will not be as easy, as they will have quite a few absences for different reasons. When it comes to new signings, Los Azulcremas added Kevin Álvarez to their roster, which will boost the right wing in defense, but the cherry on top will come next week, as striker Julián Quiñones is set to join the team after a multi-million dollar deal between América and Atlas.

On the other side of the pitch, Juárez return to the tournament with high hopes on their young coach and with a new sporting director trying to make a difference. Coach Diego Mejía saw his team being boosted with the additions of players such as Avilés Hurtado, Gonzalo Pelúa, and Álvaro Mejía, who will add depth to a team trying to make the playoffs for the first time since they returned to the Liga MX. Juárez failed to win any of their last five games last season (including a loss to América), but the chance to make things right in this new tournament will surely be enough to see them taking all the points home in their debut.

Juárez: Emiliano Velázquez, Manuel Castro (injured). Denzell García (on international duty with Mexico's U-23 team), Alan Soñora (on international duty with the USMNT).
