Club America vs. Chivas Guadalajara - My Pick

• Club America vs. Chivas Guadalajara pick: Both teams to score yes (-110) at bet365

Though the struggles are evident, Club America is still a solid side that has a crop of class players on its roster. They’re at a bit of a disadvantage having to play at a temporary home while the Estadio Azteca renovations continue. It’s hard to see this club go a second straight home game without hitting the scoresheet. On the other hand, Chivas are in favourable form of late hitting the back of the net 11 times in their last five matches overall. The Rebaño Sagrado isn’t the most rigid defence when they perform on the road, as Chivas have conceded five goals in three away tilts. Huge rivalry games like El Súper Clasico produce cagey encounters but with this being a regular season skirmish, think we will see both sides take more risks with less on the line rather than a postseason or club competition altercation.
