Defender Sebastian Caceres is ruled out with a knee injury for Club America, while Kevin Alvarez is a doubt due to a foot injury.
Although Colombian striker Julian Quinones was substituted in the first-leg final, he is expected to continue lining up in a front-three alongside Henry Martin and Alejandro Zendejas in the second leg against the Machine. In addition to scoring the goal, he was incisive on the left wing and could have bagged a brace in the first leg if it had not been for a great block by Willer Ditta.
