For both Pachuca and Club America it is a do or die match as they face off at the Estadio Azteca for a place in the “Fiesta Grande” of Liga MX.
An end of the season slump has Club America within a defeat of likely missing out on the Liguilla for the first time in 13 seasons. Ricardo La Volpe’s men looked set to be among the top eight of the competition, but two straight defeats, including one to Atlas last week at the Estadio Azteca, has the azulcremas in a precarious position.
The math for Club America is a lot simpler than Pachuca’s, though.
