THE CLASICOS: CHIVAS VS. AMERICA EDITION


Tomorrow... well actually in a few hours, one of the greatest rivalries in soccer (futbol) will take place, of course I am talking about the Superclasico Chivas vs. America!!!

This should be a pretty interesting one, putting aside the rivalry factor there is a lot at stake. For instance, Chivas could potentially regain the Superliderato since both Santos de Laguna and Cruz Azul were defeated this jornada. The Superliderato is up for grabs! A victory for Guadalajara would mean the Superliderato and since regular season is a few games from being over, the Superliderato is of great worth (putting aside the whole curse of the Superliderato).

Las Aguilas on the other-hand are just playing for sheer pride since their nightmare season is almost over. America is currently in 16th place with 14 points. Apertura 2011 was definitely not their season! Although they are coming off a surprising 3-0 win over Monterrey. 

I guess it's up in the air, since there are no safe bets in soccer but my chedda is still on Chivas!

Btw another clasico being battled today is Manchester United vs. Manchester City! The Manchester clasico is literally less then 5 hours away! 

Soccer Sunday will be pretty epic, so tune in!!!
