Preview: Chivas vs. America

This Sunday, the game that everyone has been waiting for has finally arrived. Chivas and America will square off in another edition of the Super Clasico at Estadio Omnilife. Both teams are coming into this game after tying. Both teams are currently in Liguilla positions, America being in 7th and Chivas being in 8th. The last time these two teams faced each other, America would win 2-0 in Estadio Azteca. This game is much more than 3 points, it is for bragging right? Who will win the Super Clasico?

Liga MX: A True Clasico?



This past Saturday, a Clasico was played between Atlas and Chivas at Estadio Omnilife. The game was epic, and the stadium was packed, but in the end, the game ended in a draw, the score being 1-1. The first goal of the game would be scored by Aldo de Nigris of Chivas in minute 9 of the very 1st half. However, Atlas would tie the game in minute 72 with a goal by J. Ortigoza. Once the game ended, a fight broke out between the Chivas and Atlas fan. A very terrible way for the fans to react after a game.

Prepare for the Clasicos




The next two games that Chivas Guadalajara will play are both Clasicos, and both games are for the pride of one team. The fist Clasico that Chivas will play is The Clasico Tapatio against Atlas at Estadio Jalisco. This game will be the battle for Jalisco, where one team will leave with 3 points and bragging rights. The most important Clasico in Mexico is Chivas vs. America, a Clasico that has expanded as an all out war between these two legendary teams. Chivas and America have battled out and settled their differences in the field. Will Chivas be able to defeat both Atlas and America? Only 90 minutes will tell.

Liga MX: Chivas conquer "The King"



This past Sunday, Chivas hosted a game at Estadio Omnilife against the champions, Leon. The game was pretty tight, but in the end, Chivas would win the game 1-0 and take 3 points from the champions. The only goal of the game was scored by Giovani Hernandez in the 6th minute of the 1st half. This would be enough for Chivas to once again be in the top 8 in Liga MX.
