For the third time in the space of just under two weeks, Club América and Chivas Guadalajara face off this weekend. After América’s aggregate win over their arch rivals in the CONCACAF Champions Cup, Mexico’s Clásico Nacional moves back to the domestic stage.

Can Chivas build on second-leg win?

On Saturday, Chivas host América on matchday 12 of the Clausura 2024. Guadalajara, who sit down in ninth in the Liga MX standings, will be out to repeat their Champions Cup second-leg performance against Las Águilas and earn a result that gets their tournament back on track.

América, meanwhile, will attempt to get back to winning ways, having progressed to the Champions Cup quarter-finals despite a 3-2 defeat to Chivas in Wednesday’s last-16 return at the Estadio Azteca.

Chivas vs América: the form guide

América are on a good run of form in away games against Chivas. The 14-time Mexican champions haven’t lost on the road against El Rebaño Sagrado since a 1-0 Liga MX quarter-final defeat in Guadalajara in November 2020. In the teams’ five meetings at Estadio Akron since then, América have registered four wins and a draw.

In the Clausura 2024, Los Americanistas are on a sequence of four matches without defeat (W3 D1). Chivas, on the other hand, have won just one of their last five games in the Mexican top flight, and have lost their past two.
