Cruz Azul vs Monterrey preview
Cruz Azul
The hosts are not in their best form, as they closed the Liga Apertura with seven wins, three draws, and seven defeats.
Moreover, Los Cementeros, who recently won the Copa Sky 2022 after defeating Chivas de Guadalajara in the final (2-0), haven’t been able to start the Clausura in style, as they ended up sharing the spoils with Tijuana (1-1) and currently sit seventh in the standings.
Cruz Azul, who have been the Liga MX champions nine times, will be looking to be at their best as they search for their first win in the Clausura.
Monterrey
Meanwhile, Monterrey had a remarkable Apertura campaign, finishing in second place in the regular season, only three points behind Club América.
Los Rayados only lost two games before playing the knockout stages, while Victor Manuel Vutetich’s pupils have already lost their first Clausura match at home to Chivas (0-1).
Monterrey are slight favorites going into the game, where Arturo González will likely be the visitors’ biggest menace up front.
