Club América Dominates Liga MX Apertura 2026

Club América is demonstrating exceptional performance in the Apertura 2026 Liga MX season. Under manager Guillermo Almada, the team has secured five victories and one draw, establishing themselves as strong contenders. Their defensive unit is particularly noteworthy, standing as the league's most impenetrable with only two goals conceded so far.

This Saturday night, América will face their rivals, Cruz Azul, at the Estadio Azteca. Cruz Azul enters the match with a less consistent record, having accumulated four wins against three losses. Their defense has proven to be a point of vulnerability, allowing 11 goals. With key players like Santiago Mingo and Santiago Bueno sidelined due to injury, Cruz Azul will face a significant challenge against América's formidable lineup, which includes the returning goalkeeper Luis Ángel Malagón and striker Miguel Borja.
