Cruz Azul Tijuana betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Cruz Azul managed to make a good campaign in the Apertura and now in this competition hopes to improve its performance, so will try to take the initiative of the game from the early minutes. Tijuana needs to improve its performance a lot in relation to the Apertura, so it should try to nullify the home team's attack moves, so the home team should find it difficult to build attack plays, so we will bet that there will be no more than 2.5 goals in this match.

Analysis Cruz Azul

The home team comes to this round of the Liga MX (Clausura) after having ended the last qualifying stage (Apertura) in the 6th position, with 27 points won. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 7 draws and 2 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got an away win against Toluca by (1‑2). In the last 9 home league matches Cruz Azul has a record of 3 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 13 points out of 27 possible. The most recurrent result at half‑time in their home league matches was the 0‑0 (4 out of 9 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 19 matches for this competition, but have been able to turn the score around in 3.

Cruz Azul made a reasonably good campaign at the Apertura as they managed to reach the quarterfinals, which was a good thing. Now, in the Clausura, hopes to achieve better results, and this way to go further in the competition. The home games will be very important to achieve its goal and alongside its supporters the team wants to win, so should give everything on the field to conquer the victory. For this match coach Pedro Caixinha can not count on Walter Montoya who is injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Jesús Corona, Julio Domínguez, Julián Velázquez, Adrián Aldrete, Jose Madueña, Martín Rodríguez, Rafael Baca, Francisco Silva, Carlos Fierro, Ángel Mena, Felipe Mora.

Analysis Tijuana

The away team comes to this round of the Liga MX (Clausura) after having ended the last qualifying stage (Apertura) in the 11th position, with 21 points won. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 14 goals scored and 25 conceded; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 13 goals scored and 11 conceded. In the last 9 away league matches Tijuana has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 27 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 17 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 10 times and have only turned the score around in 1. In the last 20 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 12 of their 32 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Tijuana has left much to be desired in the last Apertura and knows that it has to improve its performance in the field, so it hopes to achieve good results from the beginning of the championship. The expectation is that it can make good displays, with quality and without making mistakes, because in this way it will be easier to achieve a regularity of good results, and thus be able to be among the first placed in the table. For this match coach Diego Cocca can not count on Yasser Corona who is injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Gibran Lajud, Pablo Aguilar, Michael Orozco, Juan Carlos Valenzuela, Damián Pérez, Luis Chavez, Damian Musto, Victor Malcorra, Juan Iturbe, Miller Bolaños, Juan Martin Lucero.
