America vs. Monterrey: 2019 Apertura Championship Leg 2 Preview, Live Stream

Monterrey only have to avoid defeat when they travel to Club America in the second leg of the 2019 Liga MX Apertura final on Sunday in order to win their first such title since 2010.

Los Rayados lead the fixture 2-1 on aggregate after Rogelio Funes Mori won Thursday's home leg with a spectacular bicycle-kick in injury time.

Defending Apertura champions America are targeting their second title in as many tournaments under Miguel Herrera, who remains the only Mexican manager to win a Liga MX title since 2013.

Monterrey counterpart Antonio Mohamed has enjoyed a rejuvenating effect since returning to the club for his second stint in October and is yet to be beaten in 13 domestic matches.
