Club América and Monterrey will face off in a Liga MX Apertura Matchday 14 showdown on Sunday, both sides eager to claim three points. The hosts recently played to a 2-2 stalemate at Club Tijuana in a midweek clash.

Alex Zendejas opened the scoring in the 26th minute for América, but a penalty conversion by Christian Rivera in first-half injury time leveled the match. Early in the second half, Domingo Blanco put Tijuana ahead, but Rodrigo Aguirre found the back of the net midway through the half to restore parity.

As for Monterrey, they played out a scoreless draw against UNAM Pumas at home, sharing the points. The result left La Pandilla sitting in third place with 25 points from 14 matches, while Club América are currently 10th, holding 18 points.

We are not anticipating a huge number of goals when Club América clash with Monterrey. The price of -118 for Under 2.5 stands out on the coupon and we can wager on the Total Goals market with optimism.

Key Players to Watch

Often, this type of match is largely defined by the individual performances of certain players. In this article, we bring you the five key players for Monterrey vs América in Matchday 14 of the Apertura 2024.

Víctor Guzmán: Central Defense

The central defense will be a crucial position for Club de Fútbol Monterrey's aspirations in next Sunday’s match. Víctor Guzmán must hit the pitch with full concentration, allowing his teammates to develop an intelligent and effective game.

'Corcho' Rodríguez: Midfield

The midfield is a balancing point between the damage you seek to inflict on your opponent and the wounds they intend to deliver to you. The role of 'Corcho' Rodríguez, if available to Martín Demichelis, will be vital for the white and blue cause.

Sergio Canales: Playmaker

Sergio Canales has been one of the most decisive players for Rayados, whenever the situation calls for a daring and disruptive player. It’s expected that against the Eagles of América, the Spanish player will do his part and help his team secure three points.

Esteban Andrada: Goalkeeper

Having a solid goalkeeper adds value in such matches. Esteban Andrada knows how to cope with the pressure of facing the best.

Lucas Ocampos: Attacker

Lucas Ocampos has shown great character by stepping up in critical moments. His story with Club de Fútbol Monterrey is just beginning, yet he has already delivered two standout performances against Tigres UANL. All eyes will be on him next Sunday, as we expect more good news for the Argentine player against América.

The Match Preview

Club America are the Clausara champions, having seen off Cruz Azul in the final with a 2-1 aggregate win in May. However, Andre Jardine's side have been indifferent in the Apertura, winning just one of their last five league games, losing once, which has left them 16 points off table-toppers Cruz Azul.

Monterrey, meanwhile, have also won just one of their last five league games but are better-positioned than America in the standings. However, expect the hosts to claim a narrow victory with goals at both ends.

Betting Tips

Here are some betting tips for the match:

  • Tip 1 - America to win
  • Tip 2 - Both teams to score
  • Tip 3 - Over 2.5 goals
  • Tip 4 - Highest scoring half: Second half

Conclusion: An Exciting Match Up

The Liga MX Apertura 2024 match between Club America and Monterrey promises to be an exciting encounter. Both teams are looking to make a statement and secure a victory. With key players on both sides ready to shine, this match is sure to be a thrilling affair.
