Game Preview
The Eagles advanced to the semis not because they beat Cruz Azul, but because they were ranked better at the end of the regular season. After losing 1-0 on the road, Club America beat Azul 2-1 in the rematch, which was enough for them to advance due to the higher-seed rule.
This team has three consecutive wins at home, scoring two or more goals in each one. Club America has also posted clean sheets in seven of the last eight appearances in front of its own fans.
Toluca had no problems against Tigres UANL. After 1-1 on the road, they smashed the rivals in the second leg, 3-0. Fantastic Alexis Ernesto Vega was on fire in the rematch, scoring a brace and posting an assist to Edgar Lopez, playing one of his best games this season.
Following four consecutive games in which both teams have scored, this one snapped that streak. Overall, Toluca plays interesting and efficient matches on the road, with seven of the last 10 ending with over 2.5 goals.
