Why Bet on Necaxa

Necaxa managed to get into the top 8 of the tournament this weekend and hopes to continue climbing, at least to the top four, who are the ones who qualify directly for the finals without having to go through the playoff zone. This happened to them last semester when they passed and were eliminated against Cruz Azul on penalties. The Eléctrico, although they do not have a list of luxury players, hope to be able to give a big surprise and win the league title, which they have not achieved since 1998.

They have played two games at their stadium: a 1-3 loss to Toluca on Matchday 1 and a 1-0 win against Juárez in the last game. In away games they have the same balance: they beat Querétaro 1-2 and fell 1-0 to Pumas. It is one of the teams that has scored the fewest goals in the tournament (4) and is the only one in the top 9 that has a negative goal difference balance (-1).

For this game, coach Jaime Lozano will not be able to count on Spanish midfielder Edgar Méndez, who received a red card in the previous match.

Why Bet on Pachuca

Pachuca is undefeated in this tournament. It is one of the four teams that has not fallen and started very well, winning the first two games, but in the following ones, at home, they tied with Mazatlán (1-1) and Pumas (0-0).

After the painful defeat in the last final against Atlas, the Tuzo team does not think of anything other than the title. Those led by the Uruguayan Guillermo Almada were the best team in the general table of the tournament, obtaining 38 points, but it was not worth it in the last and final game, losing 3-2 on aggregate.

For this game, they will not be able to count on Luis Chávez. The midfielder was sent off against Pumas in the last minute.

Final Betting Analysis: Necaxa vs. Pachuca

It will be a good game between Necaxa and Pachuca, but we believe that due to the current level and what was shown in the previous semester, the visitors will keep the three points and get into the top four.

At MyBookie.ag we find that Pachuca is the favorite of the match with a Moneyline of +160, while Necaxa has +175 and the draw is +230.

The last game between the two teams was the last tournament, on February 5, with a 1-3 victory for Pachuca with goals from Romario Ibarra, Avilés Hurtado, and Nicolás Ibáñez, while Facundo Batista score in the 90th minute. The last time Necaxa won (and the only one in the last 9 games) was on November 7, 2020, by 0-1 with a goal from David Cabrera in stoppage time.

Go for a straight win of Pachuca in the Moneyline. If you bet $100 on a win at +160, you will gain $160 for a total payout of $260.
