Club América travels to Tigres on Wednesday night for an early-season showdown between two Apertura favorites.
América is aiming for three consecutive titles after securing the Clausura with a win over Cruz Azul in the final in May.
Las Aguilas began its title defense with a surprise loss at Atlético San Luis before a win against Querétaro on Friday.
However, this victory came at a price, as midfielder Alejandro Zendejas is out for an indefinite period of time after reportedly breaking his leg during the game.
