Cruz Azul Preview

Cruz Azul vs Monterrey Predictions Picks Betting Odds

Cruz Azul kept their fans worried during most of the Apertura 2022, but closed in good shape after a streak of four consecutive victories to complete a total of seven wins, three draws, and seven defeats in 17 matches.

They reach this quarter-final series after defeating León in the playoffs by a score of 1-0, making it five wins in a row. Regardless of the result, they have been scoring consecutively in each of their last eight league games, and that is something that could hold true in this first leg.

Absences: No report.

Probable lineup: José de Jesús Corona; Rodrigo Huescas, Luis Abram, Julio Domínguez, Ignacio Rivero; Erik Lira, Rafael Guerrero, Carlos Rodríguez; Uriel Antuna, Gonzalo Carneiro and Carlos Rotondi.

Monterrey Preview

Monterrey was the team that lost the fewest games in the 17 matchdays with 10 wins, five draws, and two defeats. They finished in second place overall with 35 points, and these results were largely due to their good defensive line, being the team that allowed the fewest goals to their rivals with only 13 goals conceded.

It has now gone six games unbeaten and has kept an unbeaten record in five of those matches. Their last performance was a goalless draw against Pachuca, and after a week’s rest, they will attempt to reach the semifinals with a solid result in the first leg of the tie.

Absences: Duvan Vergara and Joao Rojas.

Probable lineup: Esteban Andrada; Sebastián Vegas, César Montes, Stefan Medina, Jesús Gallardo; Arturo González, Matías Kranevitter, Celso Ortiz, Maximiliano Meza; Germán Berterame, Rodrigo Aguirre.

JefeBet Prediction

Both teams have had positive results in recent times, and perhaps Monterrey was better in terms of consistency throughout the regular phase, but this Cruz Azul vs Monterrey at Estadio Azteca could have a considerable equality, as neither rival wants to take too many risks.

Cruz Azul has the chance to adopt a more aggressive approach in their search for a result, but Monterrey‘s defense is up to the task of keeping a clean sheet.

Prediction: 0-0 score draw.
