What They're Saying
Veracruz manager Carlos Reinoso (via Esto): "We expect the normal Ferrari [to show up]. We have to keep gaining three points and make this stadium and this pitch important, one that feels heavy."
America sporting director Ricardo Pelaez (via Esto): "The result of this game [a 3-0 loss to Herediano] obligates you to reprogram yourself and pick yourself up for the trip to Veracruz. It's in the past. The match against Herediano is done and we'll see them again on April 8."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: America's poor form must now deal with the scoring prowess of Julio Furch. In nine matches this campaign, the 25-year-old has six goals and two assists.
Veracruz's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Hernandez; Romero, Vaca, Lopez, Paganoni; Penalba, Villalva, Andrade, Meneses; Furch, Vasquez
America's Projected Lineup (4-4-2): Munoz; Samudio, Aguilar, Goltz, Aguilar; Arroyo, Martinez, Guerrero, Sambueza; Quintero, Diaz
