Best Tip: Cruz Azul to win

A Liga MX victory in front of their own fans for Vicente Martín Sánchez Bragunde's Cruz Azul side win in the win / draw / win market is our prediction. Stats suggest that their form is good coming into the match, and they should have too much for their visitors. The odds from the bookies are pointing in the same direction, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A Cruz Azul win is the way to go, even if a tight match is possible.
