Both squads are tied with 21 points, with the US sitting second with a better goal average than El Tri, in the third position. The Mexicans grabbed eight out of a possible nine points in the last qualification window, while Gregg Berhalter's men thrashed Honduras 3-0 in February.
Gerardo Martino's men are now in a strong position to return to the World Cup, after recording a comeback victory (2-1) over Jamaica and beating Panama 1-0.
The hosts could make it into the finals for an eighth successive campaign with a win along with a loss by Costa Rica and Panama on Thursday.
The Estadio Azteca, a real fortress
Things seem to be way smoother for El Tri at the Estadio Azteca, as the altitude and the crowds have helped them in recent years: they haven't tasted defeat there since 2013 when they lost 2-1 to Honduras.
Meanwhile, the USMNT only need four points to get the tickets to the finals, but two of their final three matches will be on the road, and the Stars and Stripes have only won one of their previous five matches played away from home.
Like their rivals, a win on Thursday, combined with a defeat for both Costa Rica and Panama would see the American squad book a place for the Qatar World Cup.
It would be a victory with double reward, as the USMNT would extend their winning run against Mexico to four consecutive games, the longest such streak for them against their American neighbors.
