Why Bet on Monterrey?

Monterrey has proven to be one of the strongest teams playing at home so far this season. However, we all know how Liga MX is when it comes to the final stages, and no matter which team it is, there can be many surprises.

Rayados must continue proving that they are at their best and have every chance of winning at home.

Although Tigres had control of the ball for 90 minutes in the first leg, the visitors could generate much more danger when they went forward. Four of the ten shots they had in the entire match were directly on target.

In this second leg, Funes Mori and Maxi Meza must lead their team’s attack to victory.

Why Bet on Tigres?

Tigres, for their part, will try to demonstrate that the level of play they had at the beginning of the tournament was no coincidence since, as we know, the team was fighting for several matchdays in the top four of the table. However, as the championship continued, the team presented operational problems that took them away from the fight for the direct spots in the Liguilla.

In the playoffs, they beat Puebla 1-0 at home to qualify for the quarterfinals. They then achieved an excellent aggregate victory over Toluca, getting a 5-4. Once again, we can see how the local factor is of utmost importance in Liga MX.

The team will have to step up in this match against Monterrey if they want to qualify for the tournament’s final.

Final Betting Analysis: Monterrey vs. Tigres

While it is true that the first leg ended in a 1-1 draw, we expect the BBVA Stadium to witness a match full of goals. Both teams will have to risk a little more to win, and the team that makes the fewest mistakes will triump.

At MyBookie.ag, we can see that there is a Moneyline that favors Monterrey at -116, while Tigres starts at +320.

Considering the great level they have had throughout the season, this time, our scales are tipped in favor of the local team. Therefore, our prediction for this second leg is a 3-1 victory for Monterrey.

Look for a straight win on the Moneyline Monterrey. For example, if you put $100 on Monterrey at -116, you’ll see a $86.21 win with a total payout of $186.21.
