Cruz Azul is about to face the biggest challenges of the regular season starting next Saturday night with their away matchup against Tigres UANL, a game in which the home team is considered as the heavy favorite to win according to the bookmakers’ odds. With that in mind, Cruz Azul must try to overcome the pressure after losing their unbeaten streak during their last weekend away game against Tijuana (2-0).
Also, it must be noted that Tigres is just two points behind Cruz Azul, so winning this game would put them in fourth place in the standings, a scenario that looks very likely to happen. In this regard, Tigres UANL has a seven-game unbeaten streak, and they haven’t conceded more than one goal since their 2-2 draw against Mazatlan in late August, so their defense isn’t expected to suddenly collapse in this game.
Meanwhile, Cruz Azul recently faced a very painful scenario in Tijuana, and even though there was some controversy around the red card that Rodarte received, the reality is that their defense is very far from their best level. This fact can be confirmed when noting that they have conceded two goals per game during their last three games, including some matches against limited teams like Queretaro and Juarez.

Our Tigres UANL vs CF Cruz Azul Prediction
As has been expected since the beginning of the season, these teams are clear contenders to battle for the championship; nonetheless, it’s a reality that Cruz Azul can be considered one of the worst defenses when comparing all the teams that are currently sitting the first six places in the standings.
In summary, this game will be one of the most important tests for Nicolas Larcamon’s tactics, because even though he has managed to remain in the top spots of the standing throughout the season, his team doesn’t appear ready to play against the strongest teams in the league. Therefore, the pick for CF Tigres UANL – CF Cruz Azul is: Angel Correa Shots On Target – 2+!
