Why Bet on Puebla?
Puebla had a regular season in this Apertura 2023 Tournament with many ups and downs, which left them with little chance of qualifying directly for the Liguilla. However, after the second half of the season began, the team seemed to have found the formula that would lead them to victory.
There were many games in which Puebla faltered; there is no doubt about that. However, the team kept its composure and could close the regular season with three consecutive victories, thus securing sixth place in the standings and the last direct berth to the quarterfinals.
Puebla is coming off an excellent victory over Cruz Azul with a score of 2-1.
Why Bet on Tigres?
For its part, Tigres had an adequate level of play throughout the regular season of the Apertura 2023 Tournament. As a result, the team took third place in the standings with an excellent record of 8 wins, 6 draws, and only 3 defeats.
We should point out that Tigres’s offense was one of the best in the tournament, and they relied on it to achieve victories and secure their direct place in the quarterfinals. Likewise, the team had to work hard on its defense during these weeks off, as it was their weak point, especially in the last weeks of the regular season when they were far from winning in the last games.
Tigres ended the regular season with two consecutive draws, the first against San Luis by 2-2 and the second against América by 0-0.
