Match Preview: What’s at stake?
Club America and Chivas meet on Saturday, September 19, in one of the biggest fixtures of the Liga MX Apertura 2026. The Clasico Nacional comes with the two rivals separated by just one point in the standings: Chivas sit second with 17 points from eight matches, while America are third with 16 points from seven games. Guadalajara have five wins, two draws and one loss, while America have the same number of wins but have played one fewer match.

That makes the result particularly important at the top of the table. Chivas can strengthen their position as league leaders with another positive result, while America have the opportunity to move above Guadalajara if they win their game in hand. The tight standings also mean that a defeat could have an immediate impact on the race for the top places, with Toluca and Cruz Azul also within striking distance.
Both teams arrive with plenty of momentum, although their most recent results were different. America lost 4-3 to Cruz Azul in the Clasico Joven on September 13, ending a four-match winning streak in the Apertura. Chivas, meanwhile, defeated Pumas 3-0 on the same day to move to the top of the standings and extend their unbeaten run to five matches.
