Betting on Cruz Azul (+140 at Caliente)
Los Cementeros had a forgettable start to the domestic tournament. They are at the Azteca after losing 2-0 away to Atlas, despite having just three shots on goal to their opponents’ five.
Tuca Ferretti’s club is still struggling to find its footing, having suffered five defeats in its last seven games. The most noticeable aspect is that the other two outcomes were losses, indicating that they had not drawn since drawing against León three months ago.
What’s more, Cruz Azul has won six of its past ten games at home. Besides, it’s worth noting that they adjusted the nets on four of their five closest challenges in time.
Possible Lineup (4-2-3-1):Sebastián Jurado; Luis Mario Iturbide Vázquez, Alan Imanol Zubiri Silva, Carlos Salcedo, José Ignacio Rivero; Kevin Castaño, Erik Lira; Carlos Rotondi, Moisés Veiga, Christian Tabó; Augusto Lotti.

Betting on Toluca (+180 at Caliente)
Toluca began with a tie against Necaxa, like they did in their penultimate Clausura presentation. Although they have not lost at home since May 12, when they were defeated 1-4 by Tigres, their away record is not promising.
Ignacio Ambriz’s team has lost three of their previous five away games, with one victory and three draws. In any event, it’s worth noting that in three of these games, both teams were represented on the scoreboard.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Tiago Volpi; Carlos Orrantia, Andrés Mosquera, Valber Huerta, Mauricio Isaís; Fernando Navarro, Jean Meneses, Claudio Baeza, Maximiliano Araujo; Robert Morales, Edgar López.
El Jefe’s Prediction on Cruz Azul vs Toluca
We’ve previously noted that when the host side takes on the role of the home team, it frequently participates in high-scoring games. Another thing to note is that at least four goals have been scored in five of the last six Cruz Azul vs Toluca matches. We do not expect this to alter at JefeBet.
