CF Pachuca vs CF Cruz Azul Prediction & Picks - Liga MX

 by Carlos Zabala | in Liga MX Picks

For Cruz Azul, the qualifying phase for the Liga MX playoffs has become a mere formality. The last runner-up of the Clausura tournament is the highest scoring team with an impressive 19 goals in two games, backed by a solid defense that has only allowed 6 goals against so far. They will face Pachuca, another team that usually appears in the playoffs, but that had a slow start that has them 13th in the table.

Pachuca had not won in La Liga MX since July 16 against San Luis, but they were able to get a victory against Puebla in the last game, where they managed to turn on a powerful offense that had not been seen since the Clausura tournament. Rondon, the veteran Venezuelan striker, opened the scoring for the Tuzos in the 13th minute.

In the first round of the Clausura tournament, Pachuca would beat
Cruz Azul, also with a goal from Rondon, in the only match between both teams in 2024. In the last three clashes between these teams, one of the two teams did not score a goal.

Cruz Azul has a multifaceted offense, with many players capable of scoring goals and generating opportunities where it seems there are none. Rivero and Rotondi each have 4 goals in the tournament, while the Greek Giakoumakis follows them with 3.

Our CF Pachuca vs CF Cruz Azul Prediction

Cruz Azul will be a slight favorite, but having lost their last match away from home against San Luis showed that they are not infallible. Pachuca finally found the scoring rhythm that it had in the Clausura tournament that it had not been able to transfer until now to the Apertura tournament. In turn, Cruz Azul's offense will hardly leave the Miguel Hidalgo State without scoring a goal, which could result in the game with the most goals in a long time between these rivals. Our prediction for Cruz Azul vs Pachuca is: Over 2.5 goals, -130 at DraftKings.

Prediction:

Over 2.5 goals

Odds : -130
