Teams confirmed to be playing in Guadalajara so far also include Spain, Colombia, Uruguay and Mexico.<h2 id="h-airlines-cancel-flights-to-violence-hit-mexico">Airlines cancel flights to violence-hit Mexico</h2>Other Mexican host cities for the World Cup, Mexico City and Monterrey, are not believed to have been affected by the fallout from El Mencho’s killing in the same way.But four domestic fixtures were postponed yesterday due to fears of violence involving members of El Mencho’s Jalisco New Generation Cartel.It is the latest incident to cause doubts about plans for this summer’s World Cup. President Trump has hinted he could move games from Democrat strongholds, while his immigration and foreign policies have led to calls from some in Europe to boycott the US.Mexico’s president Claudia Sheinbaum has urged people to remain “calm and informed”, adding that “in most parts of the country, activities are proceeding normally”.Air Canada, United Airlines and American Airlines are among those to have cancelled flights to Jalisco, while the US State Department has warned its citizens to shelter in the region as well as in Tamaulipas, areas of Michoacan, Guerrero and Nuevo Leon.The UK government said that visitors to Jalisco “should exercise extreme caution” and follow the advice of local authorities following reports of “serious security incidents”. </div>
