Querétaro and CF Cruz Azul will lock horns on Tuesday night in Matchday 16 of the Mexican Clausura at Estadio Corregidora. Queretaro will look to continue with their fine form after avoiding defeat in their last six matches. However, their 1-1 draw on Friday night against Mazatlan proved costly, as it leaves their playoff chances hanging in the balance. They’re 5 points outside the guaranteed playoff spot with two games to play.

Cruz Azul, on the other hand, is fourth in the Clausura standings, having already clinched a playoff spot. The visitors still have a mathematical chance of clinching the No. 1 spot, sitting 5 points behind leaders Guadalajara. On the flip side, their recent form has been concerning, having won just once in their last five matches. They blew their chance to leapfrog Pachuca and Pumas UNAM in the standings after drawing 1-1 with Tijuana at home on Saturday night.

Our Queretaro vs CF Cruz Azul Prediction

CF Cruz Azul are the -143 betting favorites. They’re locked in a tight race at the top of the Clausura standings, and will know that even a draw on Tuesday could dent their hopes of securing a higher finish. Cruz Azul will also want to win and build momentum ahead of the postseason. Likewise, Queretaro will be under immense pressure to win their last two matches and possibly qualify for the playoffs. They’ve shown renewed resilience lately despite winning only once in their last six games. Still, we cannot trust either side to win due to their slow attacks. Queretaro has scored under 1.5 goals in seven of their last eight matches, while Cruz Azul has scored under 1.5 goals in their last five straight games. We see a frustrating 1-1 draw.

Our prediction for Queretaro vs CF Cruz Azul: Under 2.5 goals.

Prediction:

 

Under 2.5 goals.
