Predictions for Tigres vs Monterrey Matchday 17

Last Updated on April 22, 2021 12:53 pm by

We are entering the final stretch of the LIGA MX – Guard1anes 2021 closing tournament. As we are a few days from the end, some teams are fighting to consolidate their positions at the top of the general classification table, while others fight to ensure a quota to participate in the next Liguilla. For this match, we have Monterrey vs Tigres at the University Stadium – UANL. This match corresponds to Matchday 17 and will take place this Saturday, April 24.

How Did Tigres and Monterrey Get Here?

Tigres has had a very irregular closing tournament which brings them into the reclassification or repechage zone to fight for a spot in the next Liguilla. Tigres has not had a significant winning streak this season as they have conceded more goals than those scored accounting for a negative goal difference. The last game between Tigres and Monterrey was in another reality. On Matchday 12 of last season, Tigres beat Monterrey 2-0, in what was a very passionate duel in the current Norteño classic.

On the other hand, Rayados of Monterrey has had very good performances. They are currently up against Santos Laguna and Puebla for the two direct qualifier positions in the next Liguilla. Monterrey must go out to kill or die in this match as a defeat would be terrible for their aspirations to advance to the next phase without going through the playoffs. The greatest pressure they have is that Atlas could also join in this dispute since they are very few points away from them.

For this reason, this match will be one of the most exciting games of the tournament. In addition to being a classic norteño or “Clásico Regio” as known in the Mexican league, both teams will put it all on the field for the final stretch of the Guard1anes closing tournament.
