On Saturday night there’s the Clásico Capitalino between Pumas and Club America, one of the biggest derbies in Mexican football, taking place in the capital. Typically full of drama and intensity in recent meetings, it seems appropriate to look at goalscorers here, of which Robert Morales seems like a smart bet.
The Clásico Capitalino is a very heated affair and holds lots of passion, especially for the home side. Playing their second game in a row on home soil, where they scored twice last time out against fellow big-four side Cruz Azul, will definitely help them prepare for this vital game.
Especially as Club America have not had as long to prepare having played in the Champions Cup in the week, which wasn’t exactly as comfortable as they’d have liked, though getting the job done in the end. Pumas won’t be aiming to show any mercy to their Mexico City-rivals.

Our Pumas UNAM vs CF America Prediction
Morales has not found the net for two games now and, interestingly, his scoring pattern consists of two games between each goal - based on this trend, his next goal should be in his next game.
The Paraguayan is shooting lots, and is one of the best when it comes to goal creation. In Pumas’ last five against the best defensive sides, like Club America, Morales is the player shooting the most, averaging 3.47 shots per game, plus scoring in two out of five.
The striker scored in their penultimate home game against Toluca, the other best defensive team on the road as Las Águilas. Taking everything into account, I feel this is a really good bet at the available odds.
