The Xolos Tijuana vs Cruz Azul Copa MX Round of 16 match will be live on stream and TV at 7:00 PM Pacific this Tuesday, September 25, 2018. Xolos Tijuana will host Cruz Azul at the Estadio Caliente.
Diego Cocca has revived the Club Tijuana side and put the club right in the middle of the Liga MX playoff race. Xolos has won three Liga MX matches in a row, all by a score of 1-0.
Tijuana’s strength is definitely its defense, though the team has struggled with its offense all season long (that’s what happens when you always sell off your best players).
Cruz Azul are somewhat surprisingly leading the Liga MX with 23 points over 10 matches. Caixinha’s side has stormed through the Liga MX, and are also in contention for the Copa MX.
Cruz Azul has the best defensive record in the Liga MX, with just 5 goals allowed. Unlike Xolos, Cruz Azul boasts a powerful offense that is capable of blasting team’s apart.
Xolos Tijuana vs Cruz Azul Prediction
This will be a battle of two great defensive teams. I wouldn’t say there is a favorite in this Copa MX Round of 16 match. Xolos are always a difficult squad to play at the Estadio Caliente, but Cruz Azul are having an outstanding season.
Throw in the fact that there will have to be some rotations in both teams’ lineups, and you can see how difficult a prediction is. Look for a low-scoring affair where Cruz Azul comes out with a narrow win, they’ve simply been a better team all season long. Still, don’t be surprised if Xolos pull of a victory at home.
