Cruz Azul

Betting suggestion:

Two great teams, with a lot of offensive quality, however, America is a more complete team and in addition to having a great attacking side, they have a consistent defense. So we'll be looking for America to run a solid game, without much flaws so a bet backing America should be of great value.

In the last match, they have tied in an away match against Veracruz by (1‑1), after in the previous match they have won (2‑0) at home, against Santos Laguna. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses at their stadium.

America has managed a good performance in Apertura, reaching the semifinals. Now, to try to be at least finalists in Clausura, the team brought a couple of quality signings, leaving the squad even stronger. Going through a very good phase, America will look for a win in this regional clash to get even closer to the first position. Coach Ignacio Ambriz will be without Paul Aguillar who is suffering from a knee injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Moises Munoz, Pablo Aguilar, Osmar Mares, Paolo Goltz, Paul Aguilar, William da Silva, Andrés Andrade, Osvaldo Martínez, Darío Benedetto, Oribe Peralta.
Coach: R. Sambueza, A. Soares Jardine.

In the last match, they won in a home match against Querétaro, by (2‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 20 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 7 wins, 5 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 16 conceded.

In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑1 (4 out of 11 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 23 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times and have only turned the score around in 2. In the last 11 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 6 of their 15 goals between minutes (61'‑75').

Cruz Azul wasn't a top team in Apertura, but strenghtened the team for this Clausura and after an inconsistent start, they seem to have found their game. And the timing couldnt've been better, just in time for the regional rivalry, where a win just doesn't mean 3 points, it means a lot of confidence heading into the next rounds. For this matchup, coach Tomas Boy might be without Fausto Pinto, who is suffering from an injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Jesús Corona, Francisco Rodríguez Pinedo, Julio Domínguez, Omar Mendoza, Ariel Rojas, Rafael Baca, Aldo Leão Ramírez, Víctor Vázquez, Joffre Guerron, Joao Rojas, Jorge Benitez.
