Querétaro and Cruz Azul have been two of the most competitive teams in the Apertura 2026 season, so their upcoming clash at Corregidora Stadium should be one of the weekend's most entertaining games. That said, both teams are on opposite trends, which is why the odds favor Cruz Azul to win.
Nevertheless, even though that scenario makes sense, Cruz Azul is still far from showing consistent defensive form, so keeping a clean sheet in this game will be very challenging for Joel Huiqui’s team. However, players like Andrés Montaño and Gabriel Fernández are in very intriguing form, so they are expected to keep pushing forward offensively during the rest of the regular season.
On Querétaro’s side, Esteban González has done a fantastic job with a very limited roster, so his main challenge in the final matchdays of the season will be to mentally recover his players after failing to beat teams like Santos Laguna and Atlético San Luis. Furthermore, the good news for Querétaro’s defense is that it will recover Diego Reyes for this game.
