After the Apertura MX wrapped up the first matchday. Most teams started on the right foot, and now, as the second matchday comes our way, we get a clash that will pit two of them: Monterrey and Cruz Azul.

Rayados had excellent starts to their seasons before this one, which shows they are a pretty dangerous team to face in the first weeks. After beating Pachuca, we can expect this season to keep the trend going.

La Maquina will be the visiting team here, and they come not only from a win against Mazatlan but also from looking to improve from last season, being runner-up for the Clausura.

Why Bet on Monterrey?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Monterrey will likely be morally boosted by their previous result, hoping for more of the same after a 0-1 debut victory in this Apertura victory over Pachuca.

It has been very rare in recent games that Rayados has shown an immaculate defense. They allowed goals in five of their last six games, with an aggregate total of seven goals scored in that period, so even though they usually do pretty well at the start of their seasons, we might see them have to make up with a strong offensive.<\/strong>

The team is unstoppable at the start of every season as of late, so we currently expect them to be performing at their peak. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on Cruz Azul?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cruz Azul enters this matchup after a 1-0 victory over Mazatl\u00e1n in their previous outing. And Mart\u00edn Anselmi’s team has scored six times throughout their last six matches. <\/strong>

The number of goals that have been scored against them during those confrontations has also been six. Looking into this match, Cruz Azul are undefeated in their previous away league games.<\/strong>

Things are looking good for them at the start of the season, and the last season runner-ups are looking to keep a strong run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Betting Analysis: Monterrey vs. Cruz Azul <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With both of the teams getting a good start, we expect this match to be fun to watch, and the thing is that it is likely to be contested as both teams have been doing great as of late.

However, we do have to point out that Monterrey is usually a beast at the beginning of the Liga MX.<\/a> The fact that they are also going to be playing this match at home gives them the upper hand so we’ll go for a victory for the locals by 1-0.<\/strong>

Go for a win for Rayados at 2.04. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $104 for a total payout of $204.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
