What They're Saying
Pumas UNAM manager Guillermo Vázquez (via Esto): "It's [the game against America] always important. I think a good result is coming. We expect to rejuvenate the fans. We have to play our best game on Sunday."
America manager Gustavo Matosas (via Esto): "What I don't like is violence [at matches] because I'm pro-family when it comes to football, pro-spectacle. For me, I like it when kids come, the families and we have to defend that."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: America's Oribe Peralta scored a timely brace in last week's 5-0 undressing of Chiapas. In six appearances this Clausura, the 31-year-old has four goals.
