América and Necaxa meet for Matchday 6 of the Torneo Clausura 2023 of the Liga MX in a duel between two teams that need a victory and improve their image.
Before the tournament began, America was the top candidate, but with the passing of the games it has been falling more and more, and now it seems to be just another team.
Necaxa, for its part, is the same as last year and this time they do not want to advance scraping on the last day, so they must give big blows against big rivals.
When:
Saturday, February 11 at 6:00 pm ET at the Azteca stadium
Moneyline odds:
América -290
Necaxa +650
Draw Offs:
+400
Where Can I Watch it?
Why Bet on América?
America has had several disappointments this year. The overwhelming victory against Mazatlán (6-0) was just a mirage, because this weekend they tied again, as they had done 3 times before, versus Santos (2-2). Although they are one of the 3 undefeated in the tournament, they are in 8th place with 7 points.
Fernando Ortiz’s team is very different from last season, even though they did not have major changes in their team, the only one was that of goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa, although the problem did not lie there.
At home, they have not been able to win against some teams that are inferior on paper, such as Querétaro (0-0) and Puebla (2-2), although the last time they played at home was the victory against Mazatlán that seemed more like a tennis match.
Henry Martín is the tournament’s top scorer with 6 goals and he converted them in his last 4 matches.
Why Bet on Necaxa?
Necaxa for its part did have several changes this year, but they have not had the desired effect. Last tournament they finished 12th, qualifying for the next round in last place, and in this championship, they are also 12th after 1 win, 1 draw, and 3 losses. Last weekend they tied at home with Tijuana 1-1.
The midfielder Damián Batallini, who arrived as a great reinforcement for the team, is injured and has not been able to play in the last few games, and it is expected that he will be able to return this weekend. On the other hand, Facundo Batista, the team’s top scorer and who was also the top scorer last tournament, has only scored twice, and both from penalties. He must improve his offensive performance to help the team.
They have played 2 away games this season and both lost it. In addition, counting the last tournament, they have 8 games without winning away from home (5 losses and 3 draws).
Final Betting Analysis: América vs. Necaxa
It is an uncertain match, because if only the players are taken into account, América is far superior to Necaxa, however, at the beginning of the tournament the Águilas have not shown what they are capable of. Against teams, a priori, inferior, they have not been able to win, but at any moment they could wake up, and we believe that this weekend they will be the winners.
At MyBookie.ag we find that America is the favorite of the match with a Moneyline of -290, while Necaxa has +650 and the draw is at +400.
The last time they met was on September 10 of last year and América won 2-1 away with goals from Jonathan Dos Santos and Roger Martínez, while Facundo Batista scored for Necaxa. The Águilas have 4 consecutive victories while the last time the Eléctricos won was on February 29, 2020, and they did so 0-3 at the Azteca.
Go for a straight win for América in the Moneyline. If you bet $100 on the win at -290, you will gain $34 for a total payout of $134.
