Why Bet on América
Club América arrives in this eighth round of the Liga MX opening tournament with significant wear and tear after all the trips they made to the United States to play international friendlies and the Leagues Cup, where they managed to beat the best team in this MLS season, LAFC.
After this, America returned to the local league with a lot of fatigue, but this did not affect their level of play, and they managed to get a very good victory against Juarez with a score of 2-1.
Why Bet on Pumas
On the other hand, Pumas arrives at this matchday after a long trip to Barcelona, where they faced FC Barcelona in the Joan Gamper trophy. In this match, Los Universitarios were overwhelmed by Barça, who did not hold anything back and ended up winning with a crushing score of 6-0. In addition to the long and exhausting trip, Pumas arrive at this game with a battered spirit, which may affect their performance.
Likewise, they have not had a good opening tournament, so they must go out and get these 3 points to start climbing up the table. Pumas is the only team that remains undefeated so far in Liga MX, with a record of 1 win and 5 draws.
Final Betting Analysis: América vs. Pumas
Pumas and América have an intense and increasingly competitive rivalry. Both teams did not start the tournament the way they had hoped and will be looking to move up the overall standings at the expense of their historic rivals.
At MyBookie.ag we can see that there is a Moneyline that favors America at +150, while Pumas is at +190.
Both teams arrive at this matchday exhausted, but with the illusion of taking 3 points that can raise their spirits and change their faces for the rest of the tournament.
But in a match as complicated as this one, we are going for a draw, and we predict a 1-1 result.
