Onde posso assistir?
Por que apostar no Pachuca?
The Hidalgo Stadium will once again be the stage for Pachuca’s match, who are looking to recover in Liga MX and get their fans excited again. Perhaps the maximum capacity of the stadium, which is 30,000 people, will not be filled in this match, but one thing is true: Pachuca fans know how to support and party, regardless of the number of people they bring to the stadium.
The fans are eager to see Javier López again, the midfielder who is the team’s top scorer and has already scored six times in this edition of Liga MX. Avilés Hurtado leads the list of assists given, which shows that Pachuca’s attack sector has been inefficient this season.
The Mexican striker Roberto de La Rosa has only scored three goals in the current edition of Liga MX. Perhaps this over-reliance on their midfield players has hampered Pachuca’s performance in these last few weeks.
Por que apostar no Cruz Azul?
Cruz Azul is already in eighth place, improving a lot in the last few weeks of the tournament. With only 5 wins in 12 games, they scored only 14 goals, demonstrating difficulty consolidating their attacking plays.
La Maquina’s top scorers are also its midfielders. Uriel Antuna has scored 3 goals so far, while Carlos Rodríguez has scored twice. Coach Ricardo Ferretti knows the difficult challenge he will face against Pachuca and, therefore, the press already speculates that the Mexican-Brazilian commander will play very defensively to block his opponent’s main plays.
Although they are not favorites, Cruz Azul is a very traditional team in Mexico, and this fact always balances the confrontations in big football leagues a little more.
Final Betting Analysis: Pachuca vs. Cruz Azul
Pachuca is showing some recovery after a terrible mid-season streak that left it out of the fight for first place. They faced three difficult teams in the last few weeks and won against two, even putting 4 past none other than Club América. They still have great chances of entering and keeping a place at the top 4, but face yet another difficult challenge.
After a dreadful start, under the direction of Tuca Ferreti the Maquina woke up and is now battling to close the gap with the top teams. In this scenario, a result is crucial, as it could generate the necessary impulse to assault the top 4 or leave them in a position where just the Liguilla Playoffs are reachable.
Both must win and put everything on the pitch, however, considering the home factor and that Cruz Azul has been unable to beat the Tuzos in the last 3 tournaments, it seems like the latter will get the upper hand yet again. Go for a Pachuca’s win with a 2-1 result.
If you put $100 into Pachuca’s win, you could get $99 back for a total payout of $199.
