Where Can I Watch it?
Why Bet on Cruz Azul?
Cruz Azul is having a decent streak. They began the season awfully, and close to the bottom of the standing (although is pretty hard to take that place from Mazatlan. However, they started a decent streak from mid-season onwards and crowned it with a win over Pachuca that put them close to the top 4. Sadly for them, they couldn’t build up on that as they would have liked, drawing with León next.
In this match, they are locals from an administrative point of view, but they are facing a tough opponent.
Why Bet on America?
América has been having an excellent run in their campaign, with a single loss that came against Pachuca in a match full of mistakes. However, they have not been perfect by any means. 6 draws in 14 games is a lot, showing that the team doesn’t have the mental resilience from last season.
Whatever the case, they come in with strong momentum and have been aggressive during the whole tournament, with 31 goals scored and 19 conceded goals.
Against their local rivals, they might just enjoy going at it.
Final Betting Analysis: Cruz Azul vs. Club América
Things are looking good, as this is an interesting match in which the fans will likely be on the edge of their seats at the stadium. A classic is always a different kind of game, where everything could happen independently of both teams’ form. Cruz Azul has been far from the worst clubs in the League in the last few years, they even won a title. However, they took a historic beating with that 7-0 at the Apertura.
To be honest, we don’t expect Cruz Azul to Win or America to Lose, but there might just be enough chances that both of the teams go out with a single point. In the last 5 games, there have been a victory for each and 3 ties.
Our betting pick is placed on a Draw, and we expect both teams to score once.
If you put $100 into a draw, you could get $255 for a total payout of $355.
