Club America coach Ricardo Antonio La Volpe repeats lineups for a third straight match. Ventura Alvarado keeps his place at right-back, while youngster Edson Alvarez continues to play a big role in America’s backline. As ever, Paolo Goltz, Pablo Aguilar, and Miguel Samudio make up the rest of America’s five-man defense.
In the midfield, Renato Ibarra will be in charge of adding width, and despite concerns from the America faithful, Oribe Peralta looks to once again start on the left-side of the midfield, with William occupying the center.
In charge of making things happen in the final third will be Darwin Quintero and Silvio Romero.
