America team news
while defender Igor Lichnovsky is not expected to return to action before 2025, forward Victor Davila is also ruled out for the rest of the season with a broken leg. The duo are joined by Jorge Mere and Sebastian Caceres in the treatment room.
Caceres' absence would see Israel Reyes continue at the heart of defense, while Ramon Juarez could benefit from rotation as Nestor Araujo makes way.
Similarly, Jonathan dos Santos is likely to get the nod over Alan Cervantes in the middle, while captain Henry Martin and Rodrigo Aguirre can interchangeably be deployed at center-forward and the number 10 roles.
