While River Plate won, Inter, who were expected to top Group E, drew, so the Argentine team now has a good chance of topping the group if they can beat Monterrey of Mexico.

Monterrey earned a well-deserved draw against Inter, the Champions League runners-up, at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena in front of 40,000 people. This draw was unpredictable, and the bookmakers paid odds of around +310. Monterrey played with a 3-man defense and a 5-man midfield, a tactically impeccable performance, not the strong suit of Liga MX teams. However, Sergio Ramos, who also scored a goal, played a game reminiscent of his best, and his partners Medina and Guzmán also performed well in the 1-1 draw.

River Plate also earned a highly commendable victory against Urawa, where they excelled with their toughness in winning duels, their effectiveness in front of goal, and they exploited the Japanese team's vulnerability by scoring three headed goals.

Our River Plate vs Monterrey Prediction

Although Inter was irremediably dominant against Monterrey and generated defensive turbulence and an xG of 2.68, the Monterrey team masterfully disrupted Inter's attacks, and goalkeeper Andrada was only tested with two shots on goal. At the same time, River Plate displayed a high-pressure defense in midfield, so the Mexican team will once again have very few scoring chances. Our prediction for Monterrey vs River Plate is: Under 2.5 goals.
