A place in the final of the Liga MX Femenil is up for grabs, and for now, the aggregate favors Monterrey, but Pachuca will be looking to achieve the feat in front of their home fans and eliminate a rival that already showed its weight in the first leg.
The duel at the BBVA stadium ended in a 2-0 victory for the Rayadas, who opened the account through Myra Delgadillo, and Rebeca Bernal settled the game with a penalty kick.

Why Bet on Pachuca?
Pachuca started this series as the favorite to be a finalist because of their run to the semifinals, but in the first leg, they showed their worst side. The defense could not find a way to stop Monterrey’s offense and lost 2-0. Rebeca Bernal broke down the left flank andcrossed, and Myra Delgadillo only had to push the ball in. Then, it was Bernal who converted from the penalty spot.
The good thing for the Tuzas is that they have to play in front of their home fans, a reason to be strong and try to make an epic comeback in a series against a very tough opponent.
But hope is based on the fact that they are a powerful offense. In the round-robin, they scored 50 goals, one less than Tigres. They also have the best striker in the tournament in Charlyn Corral. And let’s not forget that in the quarterfinal they scored five goals against León.
So far, Pachuca has lost once at home, tied on three occasions, and won on six. Playing at the Miguel Hidalgo makes them grow as a team.
Why Bet on Monterrey?
In the round of the best four teams, there is no doubt that everyone has the tools to advance to the final, and Monterrey proved it in the first leg. Taking advantage of being in front of their home crowd, they defeated Pachuca 2-0. The Rayadas probably could have taken a bigger lead, but the two goals may have been enough to get through a very tough series. In addition, they did not allow any goals and managed to control the best striker of the semester, Charlyn Corral.
Monterrey is one of the best defenses in the league, having conceded only 12 goals so far. What’s more, they have not received a goal in the entire playoffs, as they beat Pumas 3-0 on aggregate.
This club has also been a very reliable visitor, winning six of nine matches. They tied once and lost twice.
Being a good visitor and having a solid defense, in addition to the first-leg advantage, are this club’s best card to think about advancing to the final. Pachuca will have to be wary of the quick Monterrey forwards.
Final Betting Analysis: Pachuca vs. Monterrey
The first match they played this semester was in January of this year at the home of the Tuzas and ended 2-2. A year ago, they also faced each other in the semifinals of the Liga MX Fem, and on that occasion, it was Pachuca who advanced with a 1-0 aggregate score.
Precisely at home, these players have made a difference to the Rayadas, as they have only lost once in five appearances. Pachuca won twice and drew the other two times.
Although Pachuca has been one of the most consistent teams throughout the season, this time, the mission looks very complicated. They will make Monterrey suffer, but qualification will be for the visitors. We’ll go for a 1-1 tie.
