The first semifinal first leg between Toluca vs. América was a very intense game, since both teams played their best offensive game in the quarterfinal duels.
Toluca has a one-goal advantage after winning 2-1, but there are still 90 minutes left to play at the Azteca Stadium. It will be an even more intense encounter because the winning team will pass to the Final. América will be looking for a victory in this game and only needs one goal to become a finalist.

America Preview
América saw its 14-match unbeaten streak, which included 13 wins and one draw, come to an end with a 2-1 loss to Toluca on Wednesday. Three months passed before the Azulcrema team lost again. They struggled to adapt on the field and did not look as solid as they did against Puebla in the quarterfinals.
They will define the series on their home field, and that should be a point in their favor, since they have not lost at home since last February. In addition, they register a 16-game unbeaten streak as locals, and come into this matchup with two consecutive victories.
Absences: No report.
Probable lineup: Guillermo Ochoa; Emilio Lara, Sebastián Cáceres, Néstor Araujo, Luis Fuentes; Álvaro Fidalgo, Richard Sánchez, Alejandro Zendejas, Diego Valdés; Jonathan Rodríguez and Henry Martin.
Toluca Preview
Toluca confirmed that it is not a coincidence for them to be at this stage after beating the best team in the regular phase. With the 2-1 win over Club América, Toluca has now gone seven games without a loss, and registers its fifth consecutive victory.
It has a one-goal advantage, just as it did in the quarter-final stage against Santos. Their last away game was a 1-2 win to confirm their place in the semifinals, but before that victory they had gone three games without a win, with two defeats and a draw.
Absences: No report.
Probable lineup: Tiago Volpi; Carlos Guzmán, Andrés Mosquera, Valber Huerta, Oscar Ortega; Claudio Baeza; Marcel Ruiz, Leonardo Fernández, Jean Meneses; Camilo Sanvezzo and Carlos González.
JefeBet Prediction
Both have shown that they cannot be considered dead, much less at this stage of the tournament. However, the fact that the match will be played at the Azteca Stadium, makes America the candidate to be a finalist by a very close score.
Prediction: América wins by a score of 2-1.
