This weekend, Liga MX action returns when the 18 first-division teams take to the field to fight for the first matchday of the Clausura 2025.

Am\u00e9rica has won the last three editions of Liga MX, so all the teams are aiming to prevent the \u00c1guilas from consolidating their position. However, we all know how complicated things can be and that the positions in the regular season are misleading.

We say this because Am\u00e9rica qualified for the previous Liguilla through the Play-In and then managed to beat all their rivals to lift their third consecutive trophy. Although it is important what they do in these 17 matchdays, the teams know that the main objective is to reach “La Fiesta Grande” at the maximum level.

Now, this weekend, we will have the actions of the match between Cruz Azul and Atlas, which will be played this Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Martin Anselmi is determined to ensure Cruz Azul maintains the momentum it has built to compete for the Clausura MX 2025.

Despite being the best team in the Apertura 2024, some reinforcements are still needed, as requested by Anselmi. One of these reinforcements is Omar Campos, who returns to Liga MX after playing in MLS. Campos will assume the left-back role previously occupied by Carlos Rotondi, who is a target for other teams such as Pumas.

While Rotondi’s future with Cruz Azul remains uncertain, he is currently part of the plans for Day 1 of the Clausura 2025.<\/a>

La Maquina topped the Liga MX Apertura 2024 standings but then lost to Am\u00e9rica in the semifinals of the Liguilla with a 4-3 aggregate score.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why bet on Atlas?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Los Rojinegros, meanwhile, have been actively involved in the transfer market and have announced the arrival of new players to reinforce their squad.

Among them are Uruguayan striker Mat\u00edas C\u00f3ccaro from Montreal, Paraguayan midfielder Diego Gonz\u00e1lez from Lazio, winger Carlos Orrantia from Toluca, and coach Gonzalo Pineda, who will embark on his first managerial position in Mexican soccer.

In terms of departures, left-back Luis \u201cHueso\u201d Reyes did not renew his contract and has signed with Rayados. In addition, Raymundo Fulgencio left after completing his loan period and returning to Tigres, and Venezuelan striker Jhon Murillo returned to San Luis.

Atlas finished the Apertura 2024 regular season in tenth place and, as a result, participated in the Play-In, getting a great win over Chivas in the first match but later falling against Tijuana.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

In the last ten matches between these teams, Atlas dominates the series with four wins. Cruz Azul, on the other hand, has accumulated three victories, while three games have ended in draws.

At Gambyl Exchange, there is a Moneyline that favors Cruz Azul at 1.34, while Atlas starts at 8.70.<\/em>

La Maquina Cementera retains the base of the team that terrorized everyone the previous regular season. We doubt they’ll maintain the same level, but believe they have enough to keep this Atlas team at bay. Go for a 2-0 in favor of the locals.<\/strong>

Look for a straight win for Cruz Azul. For example, if you put $100 at 1.34, you’ll see a $34.00 win with a total payout of $134.00.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
