Tijuana vs Pachuca will be the closing game of Sunday’s ninth matchday of the Liga MX Clausura 2023. Despite the obvious differences between the two teams at this point in the regular season, the match looks quite attractive, as both come into this match having lost their last games.
The border team has seen no change in results despite having hired a new coach, and back-to-back defeats are a cause for concern. For their part, Pachuca suffered their second defeat, which caused them to drop a few positions in the standings, so here they will try to recover from that hard blow.

Betting on Tijuana
Tijuana has won only one of its eight games this campaign, and has followed that victory with four draws and three defeats. Given the lack of results, the Baja Californian team opted to hire Miguel Herrera as coach, but this has not been a solution either, as under his orders the team has lost two consecutive matches, to Guadalajara and América, both by a score of 2-1.
At least they have a favorable record when playing as locals, as they are one of four undefeated teams at home, with one win and three draws. Their only win came in their last home game by a score of 1-0 against San Luis two weeks ago. It is worth noting that they have kept clean sheets in their last two home games, and have a total of 210 minutes without conceding a goal at home.
Probable lineup (5-3-2): Antonio Rodríguez; Leonel López, Ismael Govea, Nicolás Díaz, Lisandro López, Rodrigo Godínez; Fernando Valenzuela, Federico Lértora, Lucas Rodríguez; Alexis Canelo, Francisco Contreras.
Betting on Pachuca
Pachuca has been playing well, but coach Guillermo Almada’s calculations failed him in his last game, as his team lost by a score of 1-2 to Toluca, being this one their second defeat of the campaign. The loss ended a five-game unbeaten streak, which included four wins and a draw.
Despite dropping three points, the team from La Bella Airosa continues to be among the top four teams in the standings, having achieved the second-highest number of victories in their eight matches, with a record of five wins, one draw and two defeats. Their best fortress relies on their attack, and at the moment they are the second-best offensive team with 18 goals scored.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Oscar Ustari; Kevin Álvarez, José Castillo, Óscar Murillo, Mauricio Andre Isais; Erick Sánchez, Luis Chávez; Avilés Hurtado, Javier López, Jesús Hernández; Roberto de la Rosa
JefeBet Prediction
Even with the recent loss, Pachuca is a more solid team than their opponents, even when playing as visitors. They have won their last two away games in this tournament and while they may not be able to keep an undefeated record, it is likely for them to take the three points in this match.
Prediction: Pachuca wins by a score of 1-3.
