Club América will return to Liga MX action on Saturday, August 29, when it hosts Club Puebla in Jornada 6 at Estadio Banorte. The match is scheduled for 21:00 hours and comes after América’s quarterfinal run in the Leagues Cup 2026 against Columbus Crew.
The timing adds extra weight to this one. Club América enters the match with 13 points and is unbeaten through four of five games, while Club Puebla arrives with 10 points after posting three wins, one draw and one loss. That puts both clubs in a strong early position, even with plenty of the tournament still ahead.
How both teams are coming in
Club América is back on the domestic schedule after the Leagues Cup 2026 and carried positive momentum into this matchup by defeating FC Juárez 2-1 in Ciudad Juárez. Club Puebla also picked up a valuable result in its most recent outing, rallying from a 1-2 deficit to beat Santos Laguna 3-2. Those results give both sides a reason to feel good about where they are entering Jornada 6.
For América, this is also a chance to reestablish itself in league play after the international break. For Puebla, it is an opportunity to measure itself against one of the early leaders and see whether the team’s recent comeback win can carry into a tougher road test.
How to watch
The broadcast rights for home games are split between signals in Mexico and the United States, so viewers can follow the match through TV and streaming options tied to those markets. The available platforms include TUDN USA, Univision, TUDN.com, Univision NOW, TUDN App and ViX.
With two teams in good early-season shape and a place near the top of the table on the line, America vs Puebla should be one of the more notable Jornada 6 matches on the schedule.
