On Saturday, Pumas face rivals América at the Azteca Stadium in the Clásico Capitalino. Pumas head coach Antonio Mohamed, joined América at the end of 2013, after the departure of Miguel Herrera, who at the time left to take charge of the Mexican national team.

Mohamed’s record versus América
In 10 games against América, the South American has a record of five wins, three draws and two defeats. In five visits to the Azteca, the 53-year-old has collected three wins, two draws and suffered one defeat.
Pumas want to extend winning run against América
