Pumas UNAM vs Club America: Predictions, Picks, Odds & Lineups

Pumas UNAM host Club America at Estadio Olimpico Universitario on Saturday, November 7 (10:00 PM ET / 9:00 PM CT / 7:00 PM PT).

There’s no team news to complicate selection for either side this weekend, with no absences flagged for Pumas UNAM or Club America ahead of this Clasico Capitalino at Estadio Olimpico Universitario. Olavio Vieira dos Santos Junior leads the home attack, the club’s top scorer with 9 goals from 1,078 minutes, with Robert Osmar Morales Benitez offering a route to goal after laying on 4 assists alongside his own 4 goals. For the visitors, Henry Martin is the man to watch, having scored 10 goals already this season while putting 19 of his 28 shots on target, with Paul Brian Rodriguez Bravo pulling the strings behind him.

Club America arrive with the division’s best goal difference, a +15 return built on 8 wins from 15 games, and that attacking depth should tell at the Olimpico. Pumas have shown they can trouble bigger sides, drawing 3-3 with Cruz Azul and 1-1 with Tigres UANL in recent weeks, but a defense that has conceded enough to sit level on wins and losses looks there to be got at. Expect goals at both ends, with the visitors’ extra firepower proving decisive late on.
