Chivas collides with El Super Clasico rivals Club America in the first leg of the 2024 Liga MX Clausura semi-final on Wednesday night.
The hosts, who are seeking a 13th title, overcame Toluca with a narrow 1-0 aggregate win in the quarter-final, while 14-time champions America needed away goals to beat Pachuca after a 2-2 aggregate score. A place in the final against one of Rayados or Cruz Azul awaits the victor and there will be no quarter given in pursuit of that goal.
