America and Chivas play for tickets to the Grand Final of Mexican soccer, Tigres knocked out Rayados in the other semi-final and now await an opponent. The Eagles have the overall advantage and general table, so the Holy Flock should go for two goals in the Vuelta game.
Velko Paunovic will have to send their best line-up to earn their pass to the final. The problem for the Serbian DT is that their best players are the ones who took the field in the Ida game, which could not get the result.
For its part, the US made two changes to the starting XI that started in the game at Akron Stadium. Alejandro Zendejas and Álvaro Fidalgo started the match on the bench, but will now start the game for Azteca.
Chivas need to make a statement and beat America on the road by two goals or more, however, recent results would indicate that is easier said than done, especially with Fernando Ortiz’s best eleven. However, Paunovic decided to make a change, giving it his all in pursuit of a ticket to the final.
Alignment of the National Classic
America: Luis Malagon, Luis Fuentes, Sebastian Cáceres, Miguel Leún, Richard Sanchez, Álvaro Fidalgo, Alejandro Zendejas, Jonathan Rodríguez, Diego Valdés and Henry Martin.
Chivas: Miguel Jimenez, Carlos Cisneros, Gilberto Sepulveda, Antonio Briseno, Jesus Orozco, Ruben Gonzalez, Fernando Beltran, Roberto Alvarado, Alexis Vega, Victor Guzman and Ronaldo Cisneros.
