Conditional Formatting in Matrix Visual with different conditions based on Row Headers

Hello Everyone,

I need a complex conditional formatting in my matrix visual. I hope you can help me, thank you.

 

ClassMax1-May1-Jun1-Jul1-Aug1-Sep
A201518221419
B252230282519
C303128192535

 

This is my matrix with Class and Max in Rows, Date in Column and number of participants in the Values.

Each class has a maximum capacity. If the number of participants in more than the Max for each Class, the font colour shd be in RED. How can I achieve this?

Thank you for your kind help.
