Why Bet on Tigres
Tigres came into this Liguilla as the main favorite to advance to the Grand Final of the Clausura 2024 of the Liga MX Femenil, as they displayed a mind-blowing level of play throughout the regular season. However, their problems began in the quarterfinals, where they came very close to losing to Juárez, the last team to qualify for the Liguilla.
Then, in the first leg of the semifinals against América, things became much more complicated for the felines, as they were annihilated by América at the Azteca Stadium with a score of 1-3. Although they managed to tie the match 1-1 in the 81st minute thanks to Lizbeth Ovalle’s goal, they were unable to stop América’s onslaught.
In addition, it is worth noting that there was a controversial play at minute 82′, where the main referee did not signal a “handball” inside the Tigres area, which led to América’s third goal. Now, the Tigres girls will have to display their offensive potential, which is currently completely lacking, to win this home match and stay alive in the tournament.
Why Bet on América
On the other hand, we have the Eagles, a team that surprised everyone in the first leg of these semifinals, demonstrating an exceptional level of play.
Things started extremely well for América, as in the 22nd minute, Sara Jacquelyn Luebbert scored the team’s first goal, giving the squad a lot of peace of mind both in attack and defense. After the goal, the Azulcremas went on the attack and could have increased their lead on, at least, a couple of occasions. However, a lack of effectiveness prevented that from happening.
At the start of the second half, they conceded Ovalle’s goal to level the score 1-1 on a penalty kick. However, the América girls did not lose their composure and managed to turn the situation around as, in the 62nd minute, Luebbert scored her second goal of the night to give her team a momentary lead. Finally, after the controversial play inside the Tigres area, the Águilas took advantage to score the 3-1 goal through Kiana Palacios to put the game to bed.
América can now win, draw, or even lose by the slimmest of margins to qualify for the Liguilla Grand Final.
Final Betting Analysis: Tigres vs. América
These two teams have met many times in the history of women’s soccer in Liga MX. However, América has managed to beat Tigres in the last 2 matches between them, the most recent being a 3-1 win in the first leg of these semifinals.
As we said in our first leg preview, there’s no doubt that the felines have been the best team in Liga MX Fem for almost a year. However, towards the end of the regular season, the performance started to worsen, and we are already seeing the result.
Either way, this team can turn things around.
For this match, our prediction is a Tigres victory by 2-0.
