Why Bet on Cruz Azul?

Cruz Azul comes from winning the first three games, scoring eight goals and conceding none. They won their last match 3-0 against Tijuana in Liga MX, in a game where they had 40% possession and five shots on target, showing lethal efficiency. They also had seven corners at Estadio Azteca, with Georgios Giakoumakis and Ignacio Rivero on the scoresheet.

They started the season to improve their last tournament performance, where they were runner-ups. At least, they have been much more convincing than América, but there are still many games left to play.

Their run is perfect in every sense, and keeping it going before the Leagues Cup starts could be an excellent boost.

Why Bet on Toluca?

After finishing the last regular season third, Toluca finds itself in the same spot at the beginning of this one. They have two wins and a draw, being one of the five unbeaten teams. The Red Devils last beat Mazatlan at the Estadio Nemesio Diez. The scoreline was 3-0, with Paulinho, Brian Garcia, and Alexis Vega scoring.

The team has had a pretty good start to their season, and they have scored six times and only taken two goals.

Last season, their title dreams finished early in the quarterfinals, precisely against Cruz Azul. In their favor, they played an excellent game as visitors, pressuring the locals to the last second, so they would want to repeat the dose.

Final Betting Analysis: Cruz Azul vs. Toluca

Things are looking pretty good for Cruz Azul at the start of this Apertura MX 2024. Now, they return to the Estadio Ciudad de los Deportes with their heads held high.

However, we have to wonder if they’ll be capable of keeping another clean sheet against an aggressive and effective Toluca.

We’ll side with the locals, this time, for a 2-1 win.

Go for a victory for Cruz Azul at 2.14. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $114 for a total payout of $214.
