Club América faces injury concerns ahead of Atlas match

Club América enters its match against Atlas in Jornada 13 of the Apertura 2026 tournament facing several roster challenges. The team, currently leading the competition, will be without defender Ramón Juárez due to physical discomfort, and Raphael Veiga remains unavailable as he continues his recovery.

During the match, Alejandro Zendejas was forced to leave the field in the 66th minute following a goal in the 63rd minute. The American player is suspected of suffering a muscular injury and will undergo medical evaluation in Mexico City to determine the severity and expected recovery time.

Despite these absences, manager Guillermo Almada is expected to utilize rotations, including the return of Cristian Borja to the defensive line and Miguel Borja following a suspension. The match at Estadio Jalisco is a high-stakes encounter between the first and third-placed teams in the general table.
