Last weekend was very positive for Monterrey, as it secured a valuable victory over Pachuca at BBVA Stadium; however, the final minutes of the game were very concerning for Matías Almeyda’s team. With that in mind, its upcoming road game against Puebla is expected to be a tough challenge because it will be played at altitude on a difficult pitch like Cuauhtémoc Stadium’s.
In this regard, Puebla has built a strong home defense, conceding more than one goal in only one of its last five games. Nevertheless, Gerardo Espinoza’s team has struggled offensively, scoring more than one goal in only one of its five home games of the regular season, so its chances of reaching playoff spots are almost nil.
On Monterrey’s side, the team finally showed a dominant performance thanks to Lucas Ocampos’ return, but it still needs to be more effective to capitalize on those opportunities. Furthermore, the team has a three-game road winless streak in Liga MX, so it will be difficult for Almeyda’s side to replicate the fast-paced rhythm it showed against Pachuca last weekend.

Our Puebla vs Monterrey Prediction
That said, this game could be a chance for Monterrey to end its awful road streak; however, it cannot be ignored that in its last 4-2 win in Puebla, Sergio Canales was the hero, and he is no longer on the team.
In conclusion, even though Monterrey has a stronger roster than Puebla, it won’t be easy to win on one of Liga MX's most damaged pitches, like the Cuauhtémoc Stadium. Therefore, the pick for Puebla FC – CF Monterrey is: Under 2.5 Goals!
