Watch out for this Chivas player:

For this match, the player to watch will be the right winger; Cade Cowell. Cade Cowell, since he arrived at Chivas, has worn the shirt with pride and has had great performances that have made the red and white fans fall in love with him, also, his great ability to overflow, has made Cowell a dangerous player on the left side of the field.

March 16, 2024 9:30 PM ET

Watch out for this America player:

For this match, the player to watch will be center forward; Julián Andrés Quiñones. The current attacker for America has been a fundamental piece for the victories obtained this season, helping to retain possession of the ball and having a great capacity to distribute it in the opponent's field, likewise, his great right foot is a latent danger for all goalkeepers, so he will be important to obtain the victory.

The CONCACAF giants

On the other hand, the Eagles of America have started the tournament in a good way, remaining as a strong favorite to lift their eighth CONCACAF Cup and reach the coveted Club World Cup, a tournament in which they have not participated since 2016, precisely in the year of their centenary, when they lost in the semifinals against Real Madrid. Currently, America arrives with a full squad to face this duel in enemy territory, with the certainty that in the last match played in Jalisco, it was America who came out with the victory, however, America has a rematch pending, as in the semifinals of the Apertura 2023, they lost to Guadalajara. In the last round, America faced Real Estelí, in the first leg, the Nicaraguan team surprised taking the victory 2-1, however, in the second leg, the eagles turned the score around winning 2-0, ending the aggregate with a resounding 3-1.

The Clasico Nacional must be a red and white game

The Chivas Rayadas del Guadalajara team will be looking to get the better of their historic rival on the mythical turf of the Akron Stadium, with a venue full of red and white fans who are full of illusions, as Technical Director Fernando Gago has made the "Rebaño Sagrado" fall in love with the great collective soccer they have played so far, and with the incorporation of Chicharito Hernandez for this tournament, the "Rebaño Sagrado" will want to show who is the leader of Mexico. In the first elimination round of the Liga MX, Chivas defeated Forge FC in the first leg 1-3, taking the advantage in the first leg and in the second leg, they won 2-1 at home, ending the aggregate in a thrilling 5-2.

March 16, 2024 8:55 PM ET

Halfway through the season

Liga MX continues to advance by leaps and bounds as the 2023/24 season comes to a close. In the blink of an eye, we have gone from Day 1 of the championship to being more than halfway through the season, with the end of the regular tournament already looming on the horizon, little by little, the teams are beginning to take their positions in what will be another exciting end to the tournament, where the teams will be looking for a qualifying ticket to the playoffs or to enter the play-offs, but leaving the elimination zone, which currently covers more territory, from 18th to 11th place, is reason to say goodbye to the Clausura 2024. With rounds still to play, the big question is: Who will be the new Mexican soccer champion at the end of the season?

March 16, 2024 8:50 PM ET

Kick-off time
