Is America in check? The absolute dominator of Mexican soccer lost the first leg of the semifinal 0-1 against its most persistent rival in recent years, Cruz Azul, but the Liga MX semifinal is still to be decided on Sunday at the Estadio Cuidad de los Deportes.

In the first leg, after Rivero put Cruz Azul ahead and was himself sent off seven minutes later, América launched a series of counterattacks against Cruz Azul that, even with an extra man, proved ineffective.

Another edition of the Clásico Joven results in a merely even match. In fact, in the last six Cruz Azul-América matches, no team has managed to win by two or more goals.

For the second leg, the bookmakers have set the blue-and-cream team as favorites with an implied probability of over 50% to beat Cruz Azul in the ninety minutes. Although the champions were at a disadvantage, they have been especially adept at solving these types of ties at home, as evidenced by their victory in the last two Liga MX championships.

Our CF America vs CF Cruz Azul Prediction

Cruz Azul came out on top in several of their recent head-to-head encounters with América, but that wasn't the case in their last CONCACAF Champions League qualifier in April. Cruz Azul edged ahead of the Eagles, and because of that, they know they're capable of doing the same in Liga MX. Still, it doesn't seem sensible to bet against the league's dominant force, and another low-stakes match seems a likely scenario. Our prediction for America vs Cruz Azul is: Under 2.5 goals.

Prediction:
