The Concacaf Leagues Cup kicks off, and Mexico is looking to reclaim its throne in the tournament. One of its historic clubs, Guadalajara Chivas, will face off against the New York Red Bulls.

Chivas come into the match having just earned their first win of the new Liga MX season, defeating San Luis in a thrilling 4-3 encounter.

Meanwhile, the American side continues to struggle in MLS, having lost 1-0 to the Chicago Fire in their most recent outing.

Guadalajara vs. NY Red Bulls Betting Odds and Info

Why Bet on Guadalajara?

Chivas are one of Mexico’s most historic clubs, but titles have eluded them in recent years.

This semester brings renewed hope, although their start in the domestic tournament hasn’t been entirely successful, with one win and one loss.

They’re coming off a 4–3 home victory over Atlético San Luis, with a brace from Armando González and goals from Juan Manuel Sanabria and Cade Cowell.

The team had a perfect preseason, winning all four of their friendly matches, which fuels optimism for a better campaign compared to last season, when they didn’t even qualify for the Play-In.

Despite an inconsistent performance so far, striker Javier ‘Chicharito’ Hernández has been ruled out due to injury, as confirmed by coach Gabriel Milito. Defender Miguel Tapias will also miss the match for the same reason.

Milito’s arrival brings hope to the ‘Rebaño’, as he is a coach who favors dynamic football and recently led a team to the Copa Libertadores final in South America.

There’s a high expectation that Milito can help unlock the potential of forward Cade Cowell, who has yet to live up to the hype surrounding his talent.

Their standout signing this season came from PSV: fullback Richard Ledezma, who has played in both matches so far.

Why Bet on NY Red Bulls?

What once looked like a promising season for the New York Red Bulls has gradually slipped away, as evidenced by their current standing outside the MLS Playoff spots in the Eastern Conference.

They are coming off a 1–0 road loss to the Chicago Fire, with the lone goal scored by Hugo Cuypers from the penalty spot.

After 25 matches, NYRB sits in 10th place in the East with just 33 points, two behind the Fire, who currently hold the last Play-In spot.

The New York side has recorded nine wins, six draws, and 10 losses, a clear sign of their inconsistency in this year’s MLS campaign.

They’ve won only one of their last eight matches, despite having two players with experience in European football: Emil Forsberg and Eric Choupo-Moting.

The Swedish international has notched nine goals and six assists, while the Cameroonian striker has tallied 13 goals, five fewer than top scorer Lionel Messi.

The good news is that the Leagues Cup is a different tournament, and it might offer a fresh start—a chance to get back to winning ways and salvage what has so far been a forgettable season.
