The 14th date of Liga MX features one of the matches that can change several things as Cruz Azul will host Monterrey, which has just lost its Clausura unbeaten streak to Chivas.
The Máquina Cementera is coming off cutting a losing streak, although it could only manage a goalless draw with Pumas.
Rayados was surprised at home, losing 0-2 to Chivas at the BBVA stadium, and is no longer the leader of Mexican soccer.

¿Por qué apostar por Cruz Azul?
Cruz Azul’s season has been somewhat strange, even if they have been able to occupy high positions in the standings in el Clausura MX 2024. The team coached by the Argentine Martín Anselmi is in fifth place with 23 points, with 17 goals scored and 11 conceded. They have seven wins, two draws, and four defeats.
In the last presentation, they drew 0-0 with Pumas, which ended a two-game losing streak against Necaxa and Santos Laguna. If the first phase of the Liga MX were to end at this point, the Máquina would have a direct place in the Playoffs. However, a loss this weekend could take them out of the exclusive group.
There is a curious fact with Cruz Azul: at home, so far, they have not drawn a single match. They have won five times and lost twice. They have only allowed four goals in front of their fans. They are looking to break a four-game winless streak at home versus Monterrey.
The most relevant player in the capital team is Uriel Antuna, who has five goals and two assists. He is two goals behind Salomón Rondón (Pachuca), who is currently winning the Golden Boot.
The club’s only injured player is Uruguayan striker Guillermo Fernández, who will not be able to play again this semester.
¿Por qué apostar a Monterrey?
There is no doubt that Monterrey is one of the great teams in Mexico this semester and is, together with Club América and Tigres, a very serious candidate to become champion. However, last matchday, they were surprised at home, losing 0-2 to Chivas, who scored goals from Héctor Moreno (own goal) and Ricardo Marín.
In this way, Rayados lost their unbeaten record and handed the first position to América on a silver platter. Both teams have 28 points, but the goal difference favors the Águilas.
Before this setback, the team coached by Fernando Ortiz had five wins in a row, including their victory over Cincinnati in the Concacaf Champions Cup.
Precisely, the international tournament is another parallel objective for the Monterrey team, and they are playing a series against Inter Miami with Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba.
Returning to its role in the local championship, Monterrey’s away games have yielded 13 points, and so far, it has not lost. What’s more, they have conceded only three times.
Guillermo Arteaga and Jorge Rodríguez are absent due to suspension.
