Why Bet on Pachuca?

Pachuca has shown a better version of itself this semester than it did last season when it failed to qualify for the Playoffs, and this is partly due to the confidence in a young roster that is growing. 

In their last match, they lost 3-2 away to Monterrey, after late goals from Dutch striker Oussama Idrissi and Colombian midfielder Nelson Deossa. 

Nevertheless, the Tuzos are in fifth place with 12 points, the result of four wins and two losses. They have scored 14 goals, the second-best offense in the tournament, but have conceded 13. 

They have won all three home games, scoring at least three times against each opponent. The problem is that all their rivals have scored at least two goals at the Miguel Hidalgo (3-2, 3-2 and 4-3). 

It should be noted that the stellar reinforcement in this market, Venezuelan striker Salomón Rondón, has responded with his scoring quota, with four goals and one assist. 

The team coached by Uruguayan Guillermo Almada has one serious injury, Paraguayan midfielder Celso Ortiz, who underwent meniscus surgery. 

Why Bet on Club América?

América is the current champion of Mexican soccer, and its mission is to win another league title to confirm its position as the country’s most successful team. 

On the last matchday, they beat León 0-1 with a penalty goal by striker Jonathan Rodríguez at 90+8′, and therefore, continue to share the lead with Monterrey and Tigres. 

The Águilas have 14 points from four wins and two draws, which came in succession against Necaxa and Monterrey. 

However, there is one aspect of the capital team’s play that stands out in particular: their defense. They have only allowed one goal in the entire championship, and that was against the Rayados. It is by far the best defense in the Mexican tournament. 

This is in contrast to the offense, since it has only eight goals, the lowest figure among the top 10 teams in the standings. Their best scorer is Chilean Diego Valdés with two. 

During the week, they played Real Estelí of Nicaragua in the Concachampions and suffered a lot in the series, but were finally able to win 2-0 in the second leg and advance with a 3-2 aggregate score. 

So far, Brazilian coach André Jardine’s team reports no injuries. 

Final Betting Analysis: Pachuca vs. Club América

The last match between the two was on October 3 last year, and América won 4-0, while the last time at the Hidalgo, it was also a victory for the Aguilas, but by 0-3.  The last four games between the two teams have ended in a drubbing, but the peculiarity is that only one team scores: América won one by 4-0 and the other by 0-3, while Pachuca won both by 3-0, one at home and the other away. 

The numbers at Gambyl Exchange have América as the favorite. The Moneyline for them shows 2.23, while Pachuca has 2.973, and the draw is at 3.58. 

Pachuca has started the Liga MX in a good way and looks like a rival to take into account this semester. However, their level is still far from what América can do, who will take the three points at the Manuel Hidalgo stadium after a 1-3. 

Go for a win for América. If you bet $100 at 2.23, you will gain $123 for a total payout of $223.
