CF America vs Puebla Prediction & Picks - Liga MX

The last match to be disputed next Saturday’s night at Liga MX will be the clash between America and Puebla, teams that surprisingly are just 2 points away from each other in the standings, so it’s evident that America is forced to show dominance in this game to get his fans satisfied after a bad start of the Apertura 2024 season.

In addition, it must be remembered that America was one of the most unactive Liga MX teams during the last month as they couldn’t compete in the Leagues Cup until the first round of the playoffs, so they tried to take advantage of that situation by facing Aston Villa and Chelsea in friendly matches. Nevertheless, that euphoria quickly ended after their quarterfinal loss against Colorado Rapids in a very long penalty shootout.

On the other hand, Puebla literally had no chance to compete in the Leagues Cup in such a complicated group that they shared with Tigres UANL and Inter Miami, however it’s evident that their squad isn’t strong enough to compete on any circumstances, because even when they had 16 days to prepare their match against Monterrey at home, they lost it 1-2 to increase their negative streak to 4 matches in a row without winning.
