Why Bet on América?
América is one of the teams that have a plus in the Liga MX Femenil. However, these credits must be revalidated in the quarterfinals against Chivas. In the first leg, the Águilas had already struck a sure blow, winning 2-0 in Guadalajara.
As for Martínez, one of the scorers, she is one of the best players in the league, as evidenced by her 15 goals. She is currently the second-best scorer in the tournament, four behind Charlyn Corrales. The attacker’s performance so far goes hand in hand with what the club has shown so far, as it is the third-best offensive team in Mexico, with 47 goals scored.
On the other hand, their defense was not up to the level of Tigres, Monterrey, and Pachuca, who all received less than 15 goals.
Despite the loss to Pachuca in the last home game, they had five wins in a row before that. In 2024 they have always scored in front of their home fans.
Why Bet on Chivas?
Chivas entered the Playoffs in fifth place in the Liga MX round-robin, having a good overall campaign. However, in the first leg, in front of their home fans, they had a forgettable performance. That is why now they have to show their best version to try to win the series against an opponent that, a priori, still seems superior.
The worst thing for the Guadalajara team is that they were not a good visitor, with three wins, three draws, and three defeats. They even conceded more goals (10) than they scored (8).
Their performance away from home leaves a lot to think about in that hope of turning the score around, but their hope lies at the feet of their best scorer, who is Alicia Cervantes. So far, the striker has 11 goals.
Another aspect that plays against Chivas is that they have only won twice in their last seven games.
Final Betting Analysis: América vs. Chivas
In the round-robin, Chivas beat America 2-1 thanks to goals from Carolina Jaramillo and Adriana Iturbide. So far, these teams have met 10 times with the Águilas at home and only twice have Chivas won, the last on March 13, 2022 (1-2).
The numbers at Gambyl Exchange have América as the favorite. Their Moneyline shows 1.39, Chivas has 6.4, and the draw is at 4.79.
The great Mexican soccer derby promises to be a great game, with Chivas obliged to win away from home, but with América trying to make its home ground respected to confirm its place in the next round. Victory and qualification will go to the team from the capital after a 3-1.
Go for a win for América. If you bet $100 at 1.39, you will gain $39 for a total payout of $139.
