América lose firepower in front of goal in Liga MX

América are not firing this season, with several of their players not at their best in the current campaign. The Mexican giants have netted just nine times in seven games, a far cry from the 16 goals scored by Toluca and Pachuca.

According to BeSoccer, América have the second lowest number of shots on target per game in Liga MX. Jardine’s side register 4.1 shots per game, surpassing only Tigres. Having conceded just three times this season, their current goal difference is +6.

Their goals have been scored by Salvador Reyes, Richard Sánchez, Julián Quiñones, Diego Valdés, Álvaro Fidalgo, and Cabecita Rodríguez, however, centre-forward Henry Martin has not netted this term.

Toluca register an average of six shots per game. That situation is reflected in goals, as they have scored 16 which has them down as the best attacking team in the league. On the other hand, Atlas have been poor in front of goal - scoring the same number of goals as América (nine).
