Alejandro Zendejas scored the 2-0 for América against Chivas in the Mexican classic.

America came out with their foot on the accelerator at the start of the second half, just as they had done at the beginning of the first half. Thanks to that intensity, the blue and yellow team scored the 2-0 against Chivas in the Mexican classic.

At the 50th minute, Emilio Lara crossed a ball into the box and Henry Martin, who was being marked by an opponent, brought the ball down for Alejandro Zendejas. The '17' of the 'Águilas' took a powerful shot that grazed Jiménez's hands, but still ended up in the back of the net.

If the result remains the same, America would climb to the top position of the Clausura with 35 points. On the other hand, the 'Rebaño' must react or they will stay in seventh place with 22 points.

America vs. Chivas: preview

The 'Águilas' secured a spot in the next round of the local championship. However, Fernando Ortiz's team wants to maintain the top spot, which they currently hold with 32 points after the 3-3 draw against Santos Laguna midweek. Meanwhile, Guadalajara wants to secure a spot in the reclasificación, which gives them a chance to compete for a spot in the Liguilla.

In view of the Clásico Nacional, it is expected that the America coach will only make one change from the lineup that faced the 'Guerreros'. Emilio Lara, who will participate with the Mexican national team in the FIFA matchday, will take the place of Miguel Layún on the wing.

On the other hand, coach Ricardo Cadena must recover from the heavy defeat suffered at home against Tigres (1-4). Despite the lopsided scoreline, Chivas' coach may field the same lineup as last week at the Akron. Thus, Alexis Vega and Santiago Ormeño should be the focal points of the offense for the 'Rebaño'.
