Tijuana
Currently in playoffs positions with a one point advantage everything is yet to be determined for Tijuana. Accumulates three matches unbeaten, one win against strong Monterrey at home, followed by a home draw against irregular Necaxa and away win against Queretaro.

Accumulates 11 matches unbeaten at home, five wins and six draws. Tijuana has stopped here Monterrey, Tigres U. A. N. L. and Pachuca, three teams in the top five. The other two teams in the top five, faced Chivas Guadalajara at Akron and lost, and welcomes now America.

Tijuana posses a good attacking players in Sanjuana Munoz, Renae Cuellar with five goals each one and Angelina Nicole Hix with three goals to be higher in the standings, but their defense allowed many goals in the first half of the season, lately it has improved.


America
Already secured their place in the Final Series and looking to end in the best position in the general standing. Saw their streak of five consecutive wins broken when they lose in the national derby against Chivas Guadalajara, bounce back in the next match and now accumulates five matches unbeaten, four wins and one draw. Therefore in the last 11 matches, one loss, one draw and nine wins.

America is the third best defense of the league with 11 goals allowed in 14 matches, great work by Renata Masciarelli and her defenders. The spotlight is clearly their attack, third best behind Monterrey and Tigres U. A. N. L. , with a powerful trident, Katty "Killer" Martinez and Scarlett Camberos with eight goals and Sarah Luebbert with six goals.

Match
In the previous four matches between them at Caliente Stadium, Tijuana has one win, and America has three wins, with three of those games having just one side scoring. Considering their current form it might be a close encounter, and equally it can feature few or many goals.

Prediction
With the Final Series quickly approaching, the pressure is for Tijuana to get points in this match. Meanwhile, America is already qualified and will take advantage of that fact, their solid defending but above all their strong attack provide them the edge here. The gameplan for Tijuana is clear, focus on its strength at home and look tp repeat their performance against the other top teams here, but it seems unlikely due to the precedent and the efficiency of America scoring.
