The Clausura 2023 is now in its third matchday, so some teams will begin to move up in the overall standings, as long as they continue racking up positive results this weekend. There are currently seven undefeated teams, as well as those that are living a different story and have been unable to win.
Necaxa vs Cruz Azul will be a match that brings together two teams that have not been able to get three points in this tournament despite having already played two matches. Due to their results, the teams are in the bottom half of the standings, but the worst of them is Necaxa as it occupies the last place of the standings.

Necaxa Preview
Necaxa has started the Clausura 2023 the same way it ended the Apertura 2022, being unable to register victories. They are the only team in Liga MX to have lost both of their two games to date, and have now gone eight games without a league win. They register two draws and six defeats, since their last win in September against León by a score of 3-2.
This home game could help them to get their first three points and get out of the bottom of the standings, but it is worth noting that they have not won in their last three home games, with one draw and two defeats.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Hugo González, José Carlos Van Rankin, Alexis Peña, Fabricio Formiliano, Agustín Oliveros, Fernando Madrigal, Joaquín Esquivel, Bryan Garnica, Ricardo Monreal, Damian Batallini, Facundo Batista.
Cruz Azul Preview
Cruz Azul’s current situation could become a cause for concern, since they began with a 1-1 draw against Tijuana and then, in their most recent match, suffered a 2-3 defeat against Monterrey. If we take a look at the way they finished the last tournament we can see that they have four games without a win, with two draws and two defeats in that period.
La Máquina Cementera is one of the seven teams that have not won in the recent campaign and is in 14th place overall with only one win. They have not won in their last two away league games and are on a seven game unbeaten streak.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Jesús Corona, Ignacio Rivero, Juan Escobar, Ramiro Funes Mori, Rodrigo Huescas, Erik Lira, Alexis Gutiérrez, Carlos Rodríguez, Uriel Antuna, Augusto Lotti, Carlos Rotondi.
JefeBet Prediction
Both teams are going through an unpleasant start to the tournament, but of the two, Cruz Azul is probably the one with the better chance of winning this match, as they have not lost in their last three visits to the Estadio Victoria.
Prediction: Cruz Azul wins by a score of 1-2.
