With the Estadio Azteca’s new lighting system set and ready to go, América get ready to host Rayados in what will be a rematch of the Apertura 2019 final played just eight months ago. This will be the Aguilas’ first match in their stadium this season, after having played their first two home games in Pumas’ Olímpico Universitario. The last time these two met was at the end of February in Estadio BBVA, in which Herrera’s side claimed victory by a score of 1-0, ultimately leading to Rayados’ long 10-game winless streak.
