The Monterrey vs Morelia game will be live online and on TV as Los Rayados host La Monarquia at the Estadio BBVA Bancomer at 7:06 PM Pacific this Saturday, August 25, 2018.
Monterrey has been one of the best teams in the Liga MX 2018 Apertura tournament, currently in second place with 15 points. Los Regios are just a point away from the league-leaders Cruz Azul with five wins from six games in this competition. Monterrey’s lone loss this season came in Week 4 against Club America, but the team has bounced back since then with wins against Pumas UNAM and Lobos BUAP. Los Rayados have an impressive attack with players like Aviles Hurtado, Dorlan Pabon and Rodolfo Pizarro, but the top scorer for the team is currently centre-back Nicolas Sanchez, who has four goals. Sanchez is one goal off of Andre-Pierre Gignac, who currently leads the Liga MX with five goals and is a massive threat on set-pieces with his height, strength and aerial abilities.
Monarcas Morelia is off to a nice start this season with 11 points, currently sitting in fourth place on the league table. The team from Michoacan has been a consistent playoff team in recent tournaments and will surely be in the mix yet again. La Monarquia has intriguing players going forward like Irven Avila, Ray Sandoval, Carlos Fierro and Diego Valdes. Valdes is the catalyst on the team as he can generate play, deliver on long-range shots and execute set-pieces. The weak point of the team is the defense and it could be Morelia’s downfall against one of the best offensive teams in the league.
Monterrey vs Morelia Prediction
Monterey has a much better team and the home-field advantage so should be able to take the three points from this match. FutnSoccer predicts a 2-0 win for Los Rayados in a game that should be pretty straightforward at the Estadio BBVA Bancomer.
