Club America vs Tigres UANL

The game will take place at 2:30 p.m. CST at Digital Health Sports Park in Carson, California. With Mexico and Ecuador kicking off later in the Copa América, the decision was made to play this important game earlier so fans can watch it.

The 2024 Supercopa de Mexico marks the return of the competition after a hiatus since 2019. Club América and Tigres UANL will battle for the prestigious trophy this weekend. Club América earned its place in this match by winning the 2023 Apertura, continuing its dominance in Mexican football. Tigres UANL, on the other hand, qualified by winning the 2023 Clausura, making them the last team, along with América, to win a major title in Mexico.

Both teams will be without several key players due to the ongoing Copa América. América will be without dynamic midfielder Richard Sánchez and defender Israel Reyes, both of whom are on international duty. Tigres UANL will be without the services of promising midfielder Marcelo Flores and influential midfielder Guido Pizarro. The absence of these players is likely to significantly affect the dynamics of the match.

In recent years, América has had the upper hand in the meetings between Club América and Tigres UANL. Club América is unbeaten in the last 12 meetings against Tigres, a streak that dates back to November 2019. The Águilas won their last game 2-0, with goals from Javairo Dilrosun and Alex Zendejas, showing their consistent dominance in the game.

The Supercopa de México was created in 2013 when Morelia beat Pumas 5-4 in a thrilling first edition. Since then, various champions have competed for the trophy; Chivas, Querétaro, Monterrey and Cruz Azul have all won the trophy. The competition has been a platform to showcase the elite teams of Mexican football and has provided fans with numerous unforgettable moments.

This weekend’s Supercopa de Mexico is an exciting clash between two of Mexico’s best clubs. Despite the absence of key players, both Club América and Tigres UANL have strong squads and the ability to deliver an engaging game. Fans can look forward to an exciting battle that not only reignites a historic competition, but also sets the tone for the upcoming season of Mexican football.
